What does the App Store Scraper do?

This App Store crawler collects app metadata at scale so you don't have to check listings by hand. Search by keyword or look up exact apps, then export every data point — ratings, pricing, genres, versions and more — as a ready-to-use dataset for analytics, dashboards or ASO tracking.

What data can you scrape from the App Store?

Data point	Description
Identity	`appId`, `bundleId`, `title`, `url`
Developer	`developer`, `developerId`, `seller`, `sellerUrl`
Ratings	`rating`, `ratingCount`, `ratingCurrentVersion`
Pricing	`price`, `formattedPrice`, `free`, `currency`
Category	`genre`, `genres`, `contentRating`
Release	`version`, `releaseDate`, `minimumOsVersion`, `sizeBytes`
Media & copy	`icon`, `description`

What you get

Each app is one clean dataset record. Export the full table to JSON, CSV, Excel or XML.

FAQ

How many apps can I scrape? As many as you need. Use maxAppsPerSearch (up to 200 per term) and add multiple search terms or app IDs to widen the run.

Do I need an account or API key? No setup or key is required. Just add your search terms or app IDs and run.

Can I scrape a specific storefront country? Yes — set country to any storefront code (us, gb, de, …) to get local pricing, ratings and availability.

What export formats are supported? JSON, CSV, Excel and XML, plus programmatic access through the Apify API.

How does billing work? You pay per item you get, so the cost scales with how many apps you actually collect. See the Pricing tab for current rates.

Can I connect this to other tools? The App Store Scraper can be connected with almost any cloud service or web app thanks to integrations on the Apify platform. It works with Make, Zapier, Slack, Airbyte, GitHub, Google Drive and many more, plus the Apify API, JavaScript/Python clients and MCP. Or use webhooks to trigger an action whenever a run finishes.

Is it legal to scrape the App Store? The scraper returns only publicly available store data. You are responsible for complying with Apple's terms and applicable laws.
