What does the Apple App Store API return?

It returns structured search results from the Apple App Store for any keyword — app title, developer, ratings, price, genres, release info and more, as JSON.

Can I search a specific App Store region?

Yes. Pass a country and lang parameter to get results localized to that App Store storefront.

Does this API return full app details or just search results?

This API returns search results only. To get the complete product page for a single app, use the Apple Product API.

Can I get customer reviews with this API?

Not with this API. Use the Apple Reviews API to pull customer reviews for a given app.

What's the difference between credits and requests?

Each API request consumes a certain number of credits based on the dedicated API you're using. The number of credits required per request can vary depending on the specific API you're using.

Apple App Store Search API

Search the Apple App Store by keyword and get every result back as structured JSON — app titles, developers, ratings, prices and genres. No HTML parsing, proxies or CAPTCHAs to manage.
