Google Play Store app search, details, reviews, permissions, data safety, and developer catalogs — one plain HTTP GET per call, paid as you go. No Play Console access, no developer account, no scraping the storefront HTML.
Base URL: https://googleplay.fetcher.sh
Authentication
Two ways to pay, same data — full mechanics in the fetcher
skill:
# 1. Prepaid credits (recommended — get a key at https://fetcher.sh/topup
# or via POST /api/credits/topup, see the fetcher skill)
export FETCHER_API_KEY="bby_live_xxxxxxxxxxxx"
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $FETCHER_API_KEY" \
"https://googleplay.fetcher.sh/api/apps?search=meditation"
2. x402 pay-per-call — omit the header; a GET with no payment returns 402
with machine-readable payment requirements (USDC on Base, Polygon,
Arbitrum, Monad, or Solana). @x402/fetch signs and retries automatically.
Every response is `{ "status": number, "message": string, "data": ... }`; the
HTTP status mirrors `status`.
## Endpoints (7 — all GET, $0.003/call)
| Endpoint | What it returns |
| --- | --- |
| `/api/apps` | Apps matching a keyword; price and country filters |
| `/api/apps/{appId}` | An app's full details |
| `/api/apps/{appId}/reviews` | An app's reviews |
| `/api/apps/{appId}/similar` | Apps similar to a given app |
| `/api/apps/{appId}/permissions` | An app's requested permissions |
| `/api/apps/{appId}/datasafety` | An app's data safety disclosure |
| `/api/developers/{developerId}` | A developer's full app catalog |
Required on search: `search`. Optional: `price` (`all`, `free`, `paid`),
`country`, `lang`. Reviews require `country`; optional `sort` (`NEWEST`,
`RATING`, `HELPFULNESS`).
## Scenarios
**Free apps only:**
```bash
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $FETCHER_API_KEY" \
--data-urlencode "search=meditation" -G \
--data-urlencode "price=free" \
"https://googleplay.fetcher.sh/api/apps"
Paid apps, German storefront:
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $FETCHER_API_KEY" \
--data-urlencode "search=photo editor" -G \
--data-urlencode "price=paid" \
--data-urlencode "country=de" \
"https://googleplay.fetcher.sh/api/apps"
An app's full details, then reviews sorted by rating:
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $FETCHER_API_KEY" \
"https://googleplay.fetcher.sh/api/apps/com.spotify.music"
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $FETCHER_API_KEY" \
--data-urlencode "country=us" -G \
--data-urlencode "sort=RATING" \
"https://googleplay.fetcher.sh/api/apps/com.spotify.music/reviews"
Permissions and data safety disclosure:
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $FETCHER_API_KEY" \
"https://googleplay.fetcher.sh/api/apps/com.spotify.music/permissions"
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $FETCHER_API_KEY" \
"https://googleplay.fetcher.sh/api/apps/com.spotify.music/datasafety"
Apps similar to a given app, and a developer's full catalog:
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $FETCHER_API_KEY" \
"https://googleplay.fetcher.sh/api/apps/com.spotify.music/similar"
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $FETCHER_API_KEY" \
--data-urlencode "country=us" -G \
"https://googleplay.fetcher.sh/api/developers/Spotify+AB"

Free: search_endpoints, describe_endpoint, check_balance. Paid:
fetch_data (any endpoint above), topup_credits, plus the named shortcut
googleplay_apps. Drop the headers block to pay per call with x402
instead — see the fetcher skill for the full flow.
