How it works
- Enter a package name (com.spotify.music), an app name, or paste the play.google.com URL, then pick the country.
- The id is parsed from the URL; the listing is read from the public Play Store page through a replaceable adapter, with caching and rate limiting.
- You get title, short description, description, rating, rating breakdown per star, install band, size, version and last update.
Example
The package com.spotify.music in the United States returns Spotify's listing: title, short description (80-character limit), average rating, a 1-5 star histogram, install band and last update date.
What the result means
Google Play has no public listing API: data comes from the public store page, which can change or be blocked. Installs are a band (1M+, 10M+), not an exact count, and no search volume is available. Data can be up to 6 hours old.
Common problems this tool helps with
- Reading a competitor's short description, capped at 80 characters and heavily weighted for search.
- Seeing the real rating distribution (share of 1-star ratings) instead of the average alone.
- Checking how fresh an app is: update date and version.
- Finding an app's package name from its name.
Frequently asked questions
Where does the Google Play data come from?
From the public Play Store page, read by an adapter we can replace. Google offers no official API for this, so temporary unavailability is possible.
Is the install count exact?
No, Google shows a band (for example 10M+). The tool reports it as is.
Why does the language change the title?
Listings are localized: country and language determine the title, description and rating shown.
