Input
| Setting | Type | Required | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| mode | string | Yes | search | What to collect. Search finds apps by keyword, Lookup resolves IDs/URLs, Reviews collects customer feedback, Developer lists a publisher's apps, and Charts reads a top list. |
| searchTerms | array | No | – | Keywords to search for (mode=search). Each term returns up to 200 ranked apps, and results are de-duplicated across terms. |
| appIds | array | No | – | Apps to look up or review (mode=lookup/reviews). Accepts numeric App Store IDs, bundle IDs, app URLs, and developer URLs. Separate multiple values with commas or new lines. |
| startUrls | array | No | – | Paste App Store app or developer URLs (mode=lookup/reviews). App URLs resolve to one app; developer URLs expand to that publisher's catalog. |
| developerId | string | No | – | Apple artist ID or developer page URL (mode=developer). For example 281956209 or https://apps.apple.com/us/developer/google/id281956209. Comma-separated values are accepted. |
| developerName | string | No | – | Publisher name to resolve when you do not know the developer ID (mode=developer). The actor searches App Store listings and matches the publisher name. |
| country | string | No | us | Two-letter App Store storefront. Changes pricing, availability, chart contents, and review language. |
| language | string | No | en-US | Language used for App Store metadata and reviews. Defaults to English (United States). |
| maxItems | integer | No | 100 | Hard cap on rows pushed per run (1-5000). Applies to apps, chart rows, and reviews combined. For very large review corpora, raise this and set maxReviewsPerApp. |
| maxReviewsPerApp | integer | No | 200 | Reviews to collect for each app (1-50000). The deep review route returns 20 per request; RSS enrichment is available for the first 500 reviews when version or helpful-vote data exists. |
Show the other 5 settings
| Setting | Type | Required | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| reviewSort | string | No | recent | Most recent first, or Apple's most-helpful ordering (mode=reviews). |
| includeDeveloperResponses | boolean | No | true | Keep developer replies when Apple exposes them (mode=reviews). Replies are available only for apps where the developer actually responded. |
| includeDetails | boolean | No | true | Add App Store detail fields such as privacy labels, version history, rating histogram, support URL, and subtitle (app-producing modes). Disable it for the fastest, cheapest search runs. |
| chartType | string | No | top-free | Top chart to read (mode=charts). Mac charts use the App Store Mac catalog. |
| proxyConfiguration | object | No | {"useApifyProxy":false} | Optional. The actor works without a proxy. Add an Apify Proxy configuration only if your own network or a future Apple rate limit needs it. |

What a run costs
The result rate falls on higher Apify plans. Each figure is the published per-result rate times the number of results.
| Apify plan | Per 1,000 | 10,000 results | 100,000 results |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free plan | $0.99 | $9.90 | $99 |
| Starter plan | $0.82 | $8.20 | $82 |
| Scale plan | $0.66 | $6.60 | $66 |
| Business plan | $0.49 | $4.90 | $49 |
- Every run also has a start event, charged per GB of memory (minimum one): $0.10 on Free, $0.03 on Business. At its default memory of 4 GB a run starts at $0.40 on Free. Fewer, larger runs keep this small.
- The Free plan includes $5 of monthly usage (Apify pricing, checked 2026-11-11); at the Free rate that covers at most about 5,050 results, less start events and platform usage.
- Worked example: 10,000 results in one run on the Free plan cost $10.30 ($9.90 for results + $0.40 start), plus Apify platform usage (compute), billed separately by Apify.
- Pay per event. Platform usage (compute) is billed by Apify on top of the event prices. Compare other tools in the cost estimator.
