App Store Scraper

Scrape the Apple App Store in any of 175 countries: search results by keyword, full details for any app, and the top free / top paid charts. Every row carries the complete App Store record: name, developer, price, rating, rating count, version, release notes, genres, content rating, size, supported languages, icon and screenshots. Data comes from Apple's official public endpoints, so there is no login, no anti-bot layer and no proxy cost.

What you can do

• Keyword search – searchTerms: ["music player", "budget tracker"] returns up to 200 apps per term and country, in App Store ranking order.
• App details – apps: ["https://apps.apple.com/us/app/spotify/id324684580", "324684580", "com.spotify.client"] accepts URLs, numeric IDs and bundle IDs.
• Top charts – chart: "top-free" or "top-paid" with chartLimit up to 200, with the chart position in chartRank.
• Any country – countries: ["us", "gb", "de", "jp"] scrapes each storefront separately, so you see local prices, ratings and rankings.

Pricing

$2 per 1,000 apps. You pay only for app rows saved to the dataset. Platform usage is minimal: the actor uses plain HTTP requests and about 256 MB of memory.

Use cases

• Market research – size a category by scraping the top charts across countries.
• Competitor tracking – schedule a daily run on your competitors' IDs and diff version, rating and releaseNotes.
• ASO – see which apps rank for your keywords in each storefront.
• Pricing intelligence – compare price and currency per country.
• AI agents – works over MCP; ask your agent for "the top 50 paid productivity apps in Germany".

Reliability

Requests go to Apple's public iTunes Search API and top-charts feed with retries and exponential backoff. Rows are de-duplicated by app and country, and results are saved as they arrive so partial runs still return data.

Legal

Only publicly available App Store listing data is collected. No user data is involved.

Support

Open an issue on the actor's Issues tab. Bugs are usually fixed within a day.
