Google Play Reviews Scraper 🟢⭐

Scrape Google Play Store app reviews at scale — rating, review text, author, app version, thumbs-up count and developer replies — with no API key, no login, and no browser. Built for ASO teams, app developers and reputation managers who need fresh Play Store feedback in a clean structured format.

Give it one or more app ids (package names like com.spotify.music), pick a country, language and sort order, and the actor pages through reviews using Google Play's own continuation token — fast and datacenter-proxy friendly.

💵 Pricing

This actor is intentionally cheap — around $0.5 per 1,000 reviews — to undercut heavier alternatives. You only pay for the compute you use; there are no per-key or subscription fees.
