# Find App Store IDs and ratings for budget apps

**Use case:** 

Searches the US App Store for budget apps and returns up to 20 matches with app ID, developer, average rating, rating count, price and genre. Use the IDs to pull reviews for each app in a second run, or change the keyword for any category. Each app returned costs $0.0005 on the Free plan, so this search costs about $0.01.

## Input

```json
{
  "mode": "search",
  "appIds": [
    "310633997",
    "https://apps.apple.com/us/app/spotify-music-and-podcasts/id324684580"
  ],
  "sortBy": "mostRecent",
  "maxItems": 100,
  "query": "budget",
  "maxResults": 20,
  "country": "us"
}
```

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [Apple App Store Reviews Scraper & iOS App Search](https://apify.com/omargnagy/app-store-reviews-scraper.md) with a specific input configuration.

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/omargnagy/app-store-reviews-scraper.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
