A Node.js library that scrapes application data from the Google Play store, exposing methods for app details, search, reviews, permissions, and more. It is no longer actively maintained beyond community PR reviews, so it may break when Google Play's layout changes.
Use cases
- scrape app details from google play
- get app reviews and ratings data
- search google play for apps by keyword
- list apps by a developer
- check android app permissions and data safety info
- find similar apps to a given app
When to choose
- you need programmatic access to Google Play app metadata, reviews, or rankings in Node.js
- you're building app store optimization or market research tooling
- you want a lightweight scraper without an official API key
When to avoid
- you need a guaranteed-stable API, since Google layout changes can break the parser
- you need active maintenance or timely bug fixes
- you need iTunes/App Store data (use the related app-store-scraper instead)
