App Store Reviews Scraper (iOS app reviews, no login)

You get public Apple App Store reviews for any iPhone or iPad app as clean JSON/CSV: rating, title, text, app version, author, date and helpful votes. Many apps and countries in one run. No Apple account, no API key. Price: $0.40 per 1,000 reviews (pay per event: review = $0.0004). Error rows are free.

Why use it

• Find what broke after a release: filter 1-2 star reviews and group by version.
• Competitor and market research: compare your app with rivals, country by country.
• Support triage and feature mining: feed real user text into sentiment analysis or topic models on a schedule.

Use with AI agents / MCP

Call this actor from any AI agent through the Apify MCP server (https://mcp.apify.com) or the Apify API, using the actor id NCY19KG5Zb0pfxuxT. An agent can ask "what do UK users hate about this app since the last update?". Output is flat JSON with stable ids (reviewId), so an agent can group by version, count 1-star reviews or summarise text. For daily monitoring, schedule the actor with sinceDate set to yesterday.

Sample tool input an agent can send:

{
  "apps": ["389801252"],
  "countries": ["gb"],
  "maxReviewsPerApp": 100,
  "minRating": 1,
  "maxRating": 2,
  "sinceDate": "2026-10-01"
}

Limits and notes

• Apple's public feed shows the most recent written reviews only: up to 500 per app and country (10 pages of 50). Add countries to collect more.
• Written reviews only: no star-only ratings and no developer replies.
• The app must be available in the chosen country store.
• About one request per second, no proxies. Set a maximum cost per run in the run options; the actor stops cleanly when it is reached.

FAQ

Where do I find the app id? The App Store URL ends in id plus a number, for example .../id389801252.

Why fewer reviews than I asked for? The app may have fewer written reviews in that country, or your filters removed some.
