The Google Play Reviews Scraper is a tool designed to collect user reviews and ratings for any app listed on the Google Play Store.

Google Play Reviews Scraper

This project provides a Python-based solution to scrape reviews from the Google Play Store using the google-play-scraper library. It leverages Apify's Actor platform to handle input data, process reviews, and output the results in a structured format.

Features

  • Extracts reviews from Google Play for a specific app.
  • Retrieves app details such as name and metadata.
  • Fetches up to 10,000 reviews (or a custom limit defined by input).
  • Saves reviews in a CSV file locally.
  • Pushes review data to the Apify dataset for further processing.

Input JSON Example

1{
2  "startUrls": [
3    {"url": "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.example.app"}
4  ],
5  "count": 5000
6}
  • count: (Optional) Number of reviews to fetch. Defaults to 10,000.

Output

CSV File

The scraper saves the fetched reviews to a CSV file named google_play_reviews.csv. The file contains the following columns:

  • User: Name of the user who left the review.
  • Rating: Rating given by the user (1 to 5).
  • Date: Date and time when the review was posted.
  • Review: Content of the review.

Apify Dataset

The scraped reviews are pushed to the Apify dataset in chunks for scalability. Each entry contains:

  • User
  • Rating
  • Date
  • Review

How to Run the Script

  1. Provide the input JSON as shown in the "Input JSON Example" section.
  2. Start the Actor and monitor the logs for progress.
