About App Stores Scraper
Need to pull app data from Google Play or the App Store without the headache? I built this scraper because I got tired of manual searches and unreliable scripts. It runs on Apify to handle the heavy lifting, letting you queue up dozens of apps at once. It’s fast, doesn’t crash halfway through, and scales up if you have a big list. I use it regularly to pull details like descriptions, ratings, reviews, and metadata—everything stays structured in a clean dataset. It’s become a go-to for my own projects when I’m comparing app features, tracking competitor updates, or analyzing market trends. If you’re a developer checking on your app’s category, a marketer researching keywords, or a business analyst building reports, this tool saves hours. You get the raw data you need to spot opportunities and make decisions based on what’s actually in the stores, not guesswork.
