Scrape App Reviews data in minutes

{
  "appUrls": [
    "https://apps.apple.com/us/app/instagram/id389801252"
  ]
}

Input parameters

Parameter	Required	Description
appUrls	Yes	App Store URLs/IDs or Google Play URLs/package IDs.
maxReviewsPerApp	No	Maximum reviews to return for each app (after the star-rating filter is applied). Default: 100.
ratings	No	Return only reviews with these star ratings, e.g. pick 1, 2 and 3 stars for negative feedback only. Leave empty for all ratings. Google Play filters on the server, so you only pay for matching reviews. The App Store feed has no rating filter, so the Actor scans its latest 500 reviews per country and keeps the matching ones. Default: [].
country	No	Default country code for bare app IDs/package IDs. Default: us.

Common use cases

• Track app sentiment over scheduled runs
• Mine feature requests and bug reports
• Benchmark competitor apps
• Feed product-research datasets

Compared to alternatives

• vs other App Reviews scrapers on the Store — pay-per-result billing means empty or failed searches cost nothing; you are not charged for a run that returns zero rows.
• vs building your own — no proxy management, markup-change maintenance, or infrastructure to run; paste inputs and consume the dataset.

Limitations

• Review volume and fields depend on what the public store page exposes.
• Store-side ranking means newest/most-helpful ordering affects coverage.
• Very old reviews may not be reachable through public pagination.

FAQ

Do I need an account or cookies?

No — the Actor reads public data only. There is no login to configure and no account to risk.

What happens when a search returns nothing?

The run completes with zero (or an explicit error) rows. Per-result billing means you are not charged for empty output.

Can I run it on a schedule?

Yes — attach an Apify schedule or use the saved tasks to re-run the same inputs daily or weekly.
