## Changelog

### 0.1.0 — 2026-07-12

- Initial release.
- Scrapes reviews from **Google Play** (batchexecute API, unlimited pagination)
  and the **Apple App Store** (RSS feed, multi-storefront support).
- Unified review record across both stores: rating, title, text, author,
  avatar, date, helpful votes, app version, developer reply (Play).
- Optional app-metadata record per app (title, developer, genre, price,
  average rating, rating count, version).
- Input accepts package names, Apple ids, or store URLs — mixed freely.
- Sorting: newest / relevance (Play) / most helpful (App Store).
- Any country & language; extra Apple storefronts multiply review depth.
- Proxyless, parallel per-app processing.
- Billing guards: only real records pushed; unknown apps → FAILED_APPS, never billed.
- 5 offline unit tests + 20-check live suite (100% field completeness on rating/date/author).
