Scrape Apple App Store reviews for any app and any storefront — no login — using Apple's own public RSS feed, and get pain-point / feature-request analysis on top.

Tested (2026-09-02)

5/5 well-known apps returned real reviews on the first request:

A single storefront page (50 reviews) took ~0.09s to fetch in that test.

How it works

Apple has published this RSS feed for over a decade with no authentication and no rate-limit wall for reasonable use — one of the most stable public data sources available. No scraping countermeasures to fight, which is also why it needs almost no maintenance.

Input

{
"targets": ["1232780281:us", "1232780281:jp"],
"maxItems": 200,
"analyses": ["overview", "group-regressions"]
}

Each target is "AppID:storefront". Apple caps each storefront at ~500 reviews per app, and every storefront holds a different set of reviews — pass more "id:cc" pairs to cover more countries in one run.

Output

One dataset item per review:

Field
review_idApple's review id
authorreviewer's public display name
rating1–5 stars
text / titlereview body and headline
datewhen the review was last updated
groupthe app version the review was left on
linkthe review's public URL on the App Store

No email, phone number, or physical address is present — Apple's public feed doesn't carry those fields.

Analyses (billed once per run, not per review)

AnalysisWhat you get
overviewcount, average rating, negative share with a lower-confidence bound
top-complaintsactual excerpts from low-rating reviews
top-requestsactual excerpts asking for a feature
group-regressionswhich release's ratings dropped versus the rest — the "did that update hurt us" question, answered directly
trendmonthly volume and negative share

Use Cases

  • Competitor monitoring: track a rival app's rating trend and recurring complaints release over release.
  • Release QA triage: run group-regressions right after shipping to catch a version that tanked ratings, with real complaint text attached.
  • Feature roadmap input: mine top-requests for what users are actually asking for, in their own words.
  • ASO / App Store copy research: see the exact language reviewers use to praise or criticize competing apps.

Pricing

Pay per event: $0.20 per 1,000 reviews collected, plus $0.05 per analysis you select.
