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.

. The file contains the following columns:

: Name of the user who left the review.Rating
: Rating given by the user (1 to 5).Date
