❓ FAQ

How many reviews can I get? As many as Google Play shows for the app, language and filter — tested with 10,000 per app.

Why do I get fewer reviews than the app's review count? Google Play only shows reviews written in the selected language, and not every rating has a written review.

Can I export to CSV or Excel? Yes — every Apify dataset downloads as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML or HTML.

⚖️ Is this legal?

This Actor reads publicly visible Google Play pages and data and does not log in. Reviews include reviewer names as shown publicly on Google Play; if you store them, follow the privacy rules that apply to you (such as GDPR).
