Apple’s App Store runs a separate storefront for every country, and an app’s rating, price and reviews differ from one storefront to the next. Apple’s own APIs need a developer account. Through AgentKey your agent reads App Store search results, listings and reviews the same way it reads everything else — find_tools, describe_tool, execute_tool — choosing the storefront where it matters.

What you can ask

  • “Find budget-tracker apps on the UK App Store and compare their ratings and prices.”
  • “Search the US App Store for meditation apps and list each one’s rating and ratings count.”
  • “What does this app cost on the Japanese App Store, and which version is current there?”
  • “Open this app’s App Store listing — developer, rating, description and screenshots.”
  • “What are App Store users in Japan saying about this app?”
  • “Pull the latest App Store reviews for this app, page by page, and group them by star rating.”
  • “Does this app rate higher on the App Store or on Google Play?”
  • “这款 App 在美区 App Store 的最新评价怎么样?“

What’s covered

Search
  • Apps by keyword in any storefront country (US by default), with a limit on how many results come back
  • App ID, title, developer, rating, ratings count, price and version for each result
App listings
  • One app by app ID in any storefront country — title, developer, rating, price, version, description, screenshots and more
  • Price and currency follow the storefront you pick, so the same app ID returns the local price in each country
Reviews
  • Reviews by app ID and storefront country — rating, title and review text — page by page with a cursor
  • A limit on how many reviews come back; set it to fetch only as many as you need

How to use it

Pass the request in plain language and let the router pick the tool:
The App Store sits in the E-commerce branch of the catalog. Search results carry each app’s ID, which the listing and review tools take, so search → listing → reviews needs no manual parsing. Every tool takes a storefront country. Set a limit to fetch only as many reviews as you need. Always describe_tool before executing: it shows the country codes, the cursor for the next page of reviews, and the per-call cost.
Building with code? The App Store is available through the catalog tools above only; there are no fixed-contract Scenario Methods for it yet. See the Scenario Methods overview for the platforms that have them.

FAQ

No. AgentKey holds the upstream access; your agent only needs your AgentKey subscription.
No. Every tool is read-only — search, listings and reviews. Nothing is posted, answered or reported.
Yes. Every App Store tool takes a storefront country, so search results, listings and reviews come back as users in that market see them, with the price in that storefront’s currency. The same app on Android is covered by the Google Play tools, which take a package name instead of an app ID.
