Apple App Store Reviews — Fast RSS API

Extract recent public Apple App Store reviews from Apple's customer-review RSS/JSON feeds by app and storefront country.

This Actor is designed around the real behavior of the public feed rather than assuming perfect pagination: an empty page does not end a scan. It will continue through the requested page range because Apple feeds can contain empty holes while later pages still contain reviews.

What it does

• accepts numeric App Store IDs or apps.apple.com URLs;
• supports multiple storefront countries in one run;
• supports Apple's most-recent and most-helpful feed orders;
• scans pages 1–10 without stopping at the first empty page;
• globally deduplicates reviews by app/country/review ID;
• filters by star rating after retrieval;
• returns title, text, rating, author, version, date, vote metadata and review URL when supplied;
• preserves exact page and feed URL provenance;
• needs no Apple developer account, API key, browser, or proxy.

Example input

{
  "apps": ["389801252", "https://apps.apple.com/us/app/youtube-watch-listen-stream/id544007664"],
  "countries": ["us", "gb"],
  "sortBy": "mostRecent",
  "maxPagesPerAppCountry": 10,
  "maxReviews": 1000,
  "minRating": 1,
  "maxRating": 5
}

Output

Each review row includes:

• reviewId, appId, and storefront country;
• star rating;
• title and full review text;
• reviewer author and authorUrl when supplied;
• appVersion and updatedAt;
• helpful-vote fields when supplied by Apple;
• direct reviewUrl when supplied;
• exact sourcePage and sourceUrl;
• UTC scrapedAt.

Pricing

Pay per unique review row saved. Duplicate reviews, metadata entries, empty pages, failed page requests, and rows filtered out by rating are not billed as review rows.

Source limitations

Apple's public customer-review feed is a recent-review window, not a complete historical archive. It is storefront-specific and generally exposes up to roughly 10 pages / 500 recent reviews per app and country. Developer replies are not included in this public feed.

Because empty holes can occur in the feed, this Actor deliberately continues through the configured page range instead of stopping early.
