What is App Store (iOS) App Metadata, Ratings & Top Charts Lookup?

App Store (iOS) App Metadata, Ratings & Top Charts Lookup is an Apify Actor that reads ratings, price, version history, size, genres, description and top-chart position for any iOS app straight from Apple's own public APIs — no scraping, no headless browser, no API key. Give it a numeric App Store id, a bundle id like com.spotify.client, a full App Store URL, or a search: term, and it returns one clean row per app. Switch to topCharts mode and it downloads a storefront's Top Free or Top Paid ranking, enriched with the same full metadata. Runs on Apify's schedule, webhook and API infrastructure, so a daily ASO or competitor-tracking pull is a five-minute setup.

Why use App Store (iOS) App Metadata, Ratings & Top Charts Lookup?

  • ASO and app marketing teams compare their rating, review count and update cadence against named competitors every day without opening the App Store app.
  • Investors and market researchers build category snapshots ("every Top 50 Free app in DE this week") from the topCharts mode in one run.
  • Developers and lead-gen teams pull the sellerUrl and developer fields off any app to find the company behind it.
  • Product teams track daysSinceUpdate across their own portfolio to spot apps at risk of falling behind Apple's freshness expectations.

How to use App Store (iOS) App Metadata, Ratings & Top Charts Lookup

  1. Leave Mode on lookup and fill Apps to look up with any mix of App Store ids, bundle ids, App Store URLs and search: terms — one per line.
  2. Set Storefront country (us, gb, de, jp, …) — price, ratings and chart rank are all storefront-specific.
  3. Click Start and export the dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel or HTML from the Output tab.
  4. To read a country's chart instead, switch Mode to topCharts, pick Chart (top-free or top-paid) and Chart size (10/25/50/100). Leave Enrich chart rows with full metadata on to get ratings and price alongside the rank.

Pricing

App Store (iOS) App Metadata, Ratings & Top Charts Lookup uses pay-per-event pricing: $0.001 per app result, i.e. $1 per 1,000 apps, plus a negligible actor-start fee. A 100-app Top Free chart with enrichment costs about ten cents. Set Maximum cost per run and the Actor trims the work to what the budget covers instead of overspending.

App Store (iOS) App Metadata, Ratings & Top Charts Lookup vs. manual App Store browsing

Checking ratings, size and update dates for a competitor set one app at a time in the App Store app or on the web does not scale past a handful of apps, and nothing there exports to a spreadsheet. This Actor takes a full watchlist or an entire country's Top 100 chart, returns one flat, typed row per app, and can run on a schedule so a rating drop or version bump shows up automatically.

Using App Store (iOS) App Metadata, Ratings & Top Charts Lookup with AI agents and MCP

App Store (iOS) App Metadata, Ratings & Top Charts Lookup is pay-per-event with limited permissions — the two requirements for an Actor to be callable through the Apify MCP server at mcp.apify.com. An agent passes apps or a chart request and gets structured rows back, ready to feed a competitive-research summary or an ASO report. The same run works from n8n, Make, Zapier and other integrations through Apify's platform.

FAQ

Does this need an Apple Developer account or API key? No. It uses Apple's public iTunes Search API (itunes.apple.com) and the public Apple Marketing Tools RSS feed (rss.marketingtools.apple.com) — the same data App Store Connect analytics pages summarise, with no authentication.

Why did my search: term return fewer apps than searchLimit? Apple's Search API returns whatever matches, capped at 200; a narrow term can simply have fewer real hits. Non-software results (songs, movies) are filtered out automatically.

What is hasInAppPurchases? Apple's public iTunes Search API does not expose whether an app sells in-app purchases, so this column does not exist in the output rather than shipping as an always-null field.

Why does the same app show different ratings for us and de? The App Store is siloed per storefront — ratings, price and even chart presence are set per country, so results are expected to differ.

What are the limitations? topCharts mode only offers top-free and top-paid — Apple's feed answers HTTP 404 for top-grossing. The iTunes API throttles by IP (~20 requests/minute); if you see error mentioning HTTP 403, lower Max concurrency. A failing item still produces a row, with the reason in error.

Is this legal to run? Yes. Both endpoints are Apple's own public, unauthenticated APIs intended for third-party use, and no personal data is collected.

Part of the webdatatools web-intelligence suite — every Actor is pay-per-event, reads public data without a login, and returns one clean row per entity:
