Google Play Store Scraper — Reviews, Apps, Developer Email

Scrape Google Play apps by app ID, URL or keyword search: exact installs, rating and 1-5 star histogram, number of ratings and reviews, developer email, website and address, price, ads, in-app purchases, content rating, release and update dates, description and screenshots — plus the app's reviews, filtered by rating, date, language, device, version or keyword. Any country and language. $1.50 per 1,000 apps, $0.10 per 1,000 reviews, no start fee.

Free tier — 20 results free on every run

The first 20 results of every run are free, on every run you ever make — not a one-off trial. One guard: the free allowance never covers more than half of a run, so the offer stays sustainable.

What does this Google Play scraper do?

Give it app IDs (com.spotify.music), Play Store links, or keywords (budget tracker). For keywords it runs Google Play's own search and returns up to 30 apps per keyword. Every app comes back as one row with the full details — no second run needed.

Compared with neatrat/google-play-store-reviews-scraper

Read on the Store on 2026-10-23 (Google Play Store Reviews Scraper). Where it does better, this section says so.

• Built on the site's own data, not a resold scraper: no second Actor between you and the source.

• Price: $1.5 per 1,000 here, $0.15 there.

3. Rating histogram. Count of 1 to 5-star ratings, for quality analysis.
4. Search + details in one run. Keyword search returns full details directly.
5. Cheaper than the leader: $0.0015 per app, no start fee, up to 20 free apps per run (at most half of the run).
6. API, n8n, Make, Zapier and MCP ready.
