Google Play Reviews Scraper — Any App, Any Country | $0.25/1K

Get Google Play reviews for any Android app, in any country and language, as clean JSON — with developer replies. $0.25 per 1,000 reviews.

Paste package names (com.spotify.music) or play.google.com links, choose countries and languages, and get rating, review text, app version, helpful votes and the developer's reply for each review. No login, no browser, no proxy. A monitor mode returns only reviews you have not received before.

No reviewer names, profile links or avatars are collected.

• ✅ Any app, any language — reviews fetched per language, with the right language for each country picked automatically
• ✅ Developer replies — reply text and reply date
• ✅ Filters — star ratings (a single star value is filtered by Google Play itself), since / until, newest or most helpful first
• ✅ Monitor mode — only new reviews since your last run
• ✅ Deep history — pages through an app's reviews as far as you ask (maxReviewsPerApp up to 100,000)
• ✅ Privacy by design — optional anonymous author_hash only if you ask for it

Want App Store reviews in the same run? Use the combined App Store & Google Play Reviews API. This is the Google Play-only version.

Input

{
    "apps": [
        "com.spotify.music",
        "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.whatsapp"
    ],
    "countries": ["us", "de"],
    "ratings": ["1"],
    "since": "30 days",
    "sort": "newest",
    "maxReviewsPerApp": 500
}

Field	Description
apps	Required. Package names or Google Play links, one per line. App Store apps are skipped with a note in the log.
countries	Two-letter country codes. Default us. Each country uses its main language (de → German), unless you set languages.
languages	Google Play review languages (en, de, ja, pt-BR…). Leave empty to use the main language of each country.
sort	newest (default) or most_helpful. Monitor mode always uses newest.
ratings	Star values to keep, e.g. ["1","2"]. One value is filtered server-side (fast); several values are filtered after download.
since / until	2026-10-01 or relative values such as 7 days, 2 weeks, 3 months.
maxReviewsPerApp	Limit per app per language stream. Default 200.
monitorMode, monitorStateName	Only return reviews not returned by an earlier run with the same name.
includeAuthorHash	Adds author_hash, a 12-character one-way hash of the reviewer account, to group reviews by the same author without any personal data.
deduplicate	Return each review once per run even if the app is listed twice (default on).

Countries vs. languages

Google Play groups reviews by language, not by country: us, gb and au with English return the same English reviews, so the Actor fetches that language once. To get the German reviews, ask for de (or languages: ["de"]). With ["us", "de"] you get one English and one German stream per app.

Google Play-specific notes:

• title is always null — Google Play reviews have no headline.
• developer_reply / reply_date are filled when the developer answered. In our test of Spotify and WhatsApp reviews, 42 of 600 reviews had a reply.
• app_version is the version the reviewer used; it is empty for reviews where Google Play does not show one (530 of 600 had it in our test).
• thumbs_up is the number of "helpful" votes.
• The summary per app and language stream (reviews, errors) is saved to the key-value store under OUTPUT. An app that does not exist is reported there and skipped.

Monitor mode

1. Turn on Monitor mode and run once to get the latest reviews as a baseline.
2. Schedule the Actor with the same input.
3. Each later run returns only new reviews; with nothing new the dataset is empty and you pay only the run start fee.

Each app × language stream is tracked separately in the key-value store googleplay-reviews-monitor (change with monitorStateName). If more than maxReviewsPerApp reviews arrive between two runs, the oldest surplus is skipped — raise the limit or run more often for very popular apps. Tested: second run returned 0 reviews; after forgetting 6 reviews the third run returned exactly those 6.

Pricing

Event	Price
Review in the dataset	$0.00025 ($0.25 per 1,000 reviews)
Actor start	$0.002 per run

10,000 reviews ≈ $2.50. Reviews removed by your filters or already delivered in monitor mode are not charged. Set Maximum cost per run to cap spending; the Actor stops cleanly at the limit.

FAQ

Why are my US and UK results identical? Both use English, and Google Play shares reviews per language. Use languages to pick the ones you want.

Does it work for any app? Any app with a public Play Store page. Apps unavailable in a country, or removed from the store, are reported as "not found" and skipped.

How fast is it? Requests are paced at about one per second with 100 reviews each, so a few thousand reviews take a minute or two. In our tests 600 reviews from 4 streams took about 20 seconds.

Is it legal? The Actor reads public Play Store pages without logging in and does not collect reviewer names or profiles. You are responsible for using the data in line with Google's terms and the laws that apply to you.
