App Stores & Reviews

Operated by Sourcelane✓ verified

A scraper for extracting Apple App Store user reviews and ratings for iOS apps: it collects per-review metadata including numeric rating (1–5), review title and full text, app version, author name and author profile URL, helpful-vote counts, review timestamp, and storefront/country information. The connector supports sorting by most recent or most helpful, multi-country collection across 29+ App Store regions, and returns up to 500 reviews per app per country in a single run. It operates against the App Store customer-reviews feed without requiring developer credentials or login, producing structured review records suitable for sentiment analysis, monitoring, ASO, and competitive research.
