App Store & Google Play Scraper

Collects app data from the Apple App Store and Google Play: app details, search results and top charts. Both stores return the same output format.

Modes

Mode	Input	Returns
details	apps: store URLs, App Store IDs, Google Play package names or app names	One record per app
search	searchTerms	Ranked search results from each selected store
charts	chart (topFree, topPaid, topGrossing) and an optional category	Ranked chart positions with full details

Other options: stores (default both), country (default us), language (Google Play text, default en), maxResults per search or chart (up to 200 for the App Store), and includeFullDetails (fetch full Google Play pages for search and chart results; default true).

Categories: GAME, FINANCE, BUSINESS, EDUCATION, ENTERTAINMENT, HEALTH_AND_FITNESS, LIFESTYLE, MEDICAL, MUSIC, NAVIGATION, NEWS, PHOTO_VIDEO, PRODUCTIVITY, SHOPPING, SOCIAL, SPORTS, TRAVEL, UTILITIES, WEATHER, FOOD_DRINK, BOOKS. Each one maps to the matching category in both stores.

Some fields exist in only one store: installs, developerEmail, containsAds and inAppPurchases are Google Play only, while sizeBytes, languages and bundleId are filled from the App Store. Fields a store doesn't provide are null. Apps that can't be found return an item with an error field.

API usage

Run the Actor and get results in one request:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/solarg~app-store-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"mode": "charts", "chart": "topFree", "maxResults": 100}'

With the JavaScript client:

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_API_TOKEN' });
const run = await client.actor('solarg/app-store-scraper').call({"mode": "charts", "chart": "topFree", "maxResults": 100});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();

With Python:

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_API_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("solarg/app-store-scraper").call(run_input={"mode": "charts", "chart": "topFree", "maxResults": 100})
items = client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).list_items().items

You can also schedule runs in Apify Console and send results to Google Sheets, Slack, webhooks, Zapier, Make or n8n through Apify's integrations.
