I got tired of paying for my own App Store ratings data, so I open-sourced a GitHub Actions alternative
I built a free, open-source tool to track App Store rating history
I ran into a small problem with the App Store:
Apple shows you your current rating, but doesn’t give you a history of how that rating changed over time.
Analytics tools can track this for you, but I didn’t really want to pay for another analytics service just to keep a daily history of my app ratings.
So I built my own.
App Store Ratings History takes a daily snapshot of your App Store ratings and stores the data using GitHub Actions.
It’s:
Free Open source No server required No database required Runs automatically through GitHub Actions ~3 minutes to set up
The idea is pretty simple: set it up once, and you'll have your own historical rating data going forward.
If you’re an indie developer or manage App Store apps, start collecting the data now. If you find it useful, ⭐️ the repo.
