FAQ

Does Google Play Reviews Scraper paginate every review?

No. Version 0.1 extracts the review cards visible in the public app page HTML. Full pagination and advanced filtering should be built as later validated slices.

Can I pass a Google Play URL instead of an app ID?

Yes. The tool accepts a package ID such as com.openai.chatgpt or a Google Play details URL containing an id parameter.

Does this require a Google account or API key?

No. The tool reads public Google Play app pages through Better Fetch and does not use account-specific Google credentials.
