✨ What it does

• 📥 Pulls the most-recent customer reviews for any public App Store app.
• ⭐ Extracts star rating (1–5), title, full review text, app version, author, helpfulness votes and the review date.
• 🌍 Works across any App Store storefront (us, gb, de, fr, jp, …) — reviews are localized per country.
• 🔑 No API key, no scraping account, no login. Uses Apple's public iTunes RSS feed.
• 🏢 Datacenter-friendly — runs cheaply without residential proxies.
• 🧾 One dataset item per review — export to JSON, CSV, Excel or hit the API.

💸 Pricing — cheap on purpose

Priced to undercut the alternatives at roughly $0.5 per 1,000 reviews. Reviews are lightweight, so most runs cost a few cents. No proxy surcharge because it runs on datacenter IPs.

🚀 Quick start

1. Open the Actor and set your input.
2. Add one or more App IDs (the digits after id in an App Store URL — e.g. 284882215 for Facebook).
3. Choose a country storefront and a max reviews cap.
4. Run. Download results from the Dataset tab.

Example input

{
  "mode": "reviews",
  "appIds": ["284882215", "310633997"],
  "country": "us",
  "maxItems": 200
}

Tip: find an app's ID by opening its App Store page — the URL ends with /id284882215.

🔎 How it works

Apple exposes a public customerreviews RSS JSON feed per app. This Actor fetches up to ~10 pages (~500 most-recent reviews) per app using a genuine Chrome fingerprint (with a stdlib fallback), skips the leading app-info entry, and maps each review into a flat record. No key, no auth, no browser.

Note on coverage: Apple's public feed returns up to ~500 most-recent reviews per storefront per app. For deeper historical coverage, run periodically and dedupe on review_id.
