Google Play Reviews Fast

Export public Google Play app reviews as structured data. Compare feedback across apps, filter by star rating and locale, and use the results in spreadsheets, support workflows, or your own API integration. The Actor runs without a browser or configured proxy.

Common uses

• Track low-star feedback for an Android app by language and country.
• Compare complaints across competing apps using the same dataset format.
• Export review rows for spreadsheet analysis or scheduled API workflows.

This is a batch extractor. Each run fetches a fresh set of reviews; it does not remember the previous run or return only new reviews.

What you get

• Review ID, star rating, text, publication time, and thumbs-up count
• App version and developer reply when Google Play provides them
• App ID, language, country, and collection time
• Optional reviewer name and image, disabled by default
• A RUN_SUMMARY record with counts and errors for each run

Results depend on what Google Play makes available for the selected app, language, country, and sort order. A request for 500 reviews may return fewer.

Run it

Enter a Google Play package ID, such as com.spotify.music, or an app URL in Apps. You can mix up to 50 unique apps in one run. Set Maximum reviews per app to 1–5,000, then choose sort order, language, country, and an optional exact star rating.

Example input:

{
  "apps": ["com.spotify.music", "com.duolingo"],
  "maxReviewsPerApp": 100,
  "sort": "newest",
  "rating": 1,
  "language": "en",
  "country": "us",
  "includeReviewerDetails": false,
  "concurrency": 5
}

rating: 0 includes all star ratings. The Actor can process 1–10 apps concurrently. If one app fails, the others can still return results; check RUN_SUMMARY.errors after the run.

Output

The default dataset contains one JSON object per delivered review. This is an illustrative example of the format:

{
  "store": "google-play",
  "appId": "com.spotify.music",
  "reviewId": "example-review-id",
  "rating": 4,
  "text": "Example review text",
  "thumbsUpCount": 2,
  "appVersion": "1.0.0",
  "publishedAt": "2026-09-01T12:00:00",
  "hasDeveloperReply": false,
  "developerReply": null,
  "developerRepliedAt": null,
  "language": "en",
  "country": "us",
  "sourceUrl": "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spotify.music&hl=en&gl=US",
  "collectedAt": "2026-09-23T12:00:00+00:00"
}

sourceUrl links to the app listing, not to an individual review. Fields that Google Play does not provide can be null. Reviewer fields appear only when Include reviewer name and image is enabled.

The Actor also saves RUN_SUMMARY in its default key-value store. It reports requested and successful apps, fetched and delivered review counts, errors, and whether the maximum-charge limit stopped output.

Use the API

You can start a run from code with the Apify Run Actor API. Send the same JSON input shown above. Read the run's defaultDatasetId, then fetch its items with the Dataset Items API. Pass your API token in the Authorization: Bearer header.

Pricing and limits

This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing: one review event for each review the Actor delivers. The current price and any plan discounts are shown on its Apify Store page. When a run reaches its maximum-charge limit, the Actor stops delivering reviews and records that in RUN_SUMMARY. The price displayed by Apify when you start a run is authoritative.

Data use

Reviews are public user-generated content. Reviewer details are off by default. You are responsible for your own lawful purpose, retention policy, and downstream processing. Google Play may change availability or rate limits; this Actor is not affiliated with Google.
