iphone - Scripts to parse and download iTunes Connect and AppStore data

Question

I'm looking for recommendations of a script or series of scripts that download and parse iTunes Connect sales data and AppStore comments, ratings and rankings data for a defined app.

I'm also aware of solutions like:

• AppViz
• appsales-mobile (dead)
• iphone-stats (dead)
• Heartbeat.app (dead)

I'm sure I'll find a few more with more searching.

I can't help but feel there must be a really decent set of open source scripts out there to do this, given how many developers are now writing apps for the AppStore.

Would be interested to hear any commercial offerings as well (although my personal preference is for open source, so I can at least see what it is doing with my iTunes Connect login credentials).

To be clear, I'm really looking for something that hits all of the areas mentioned:

App Store (per store)

• Comments
• Ratings
• Category/store rankings

iTunes Connect

• The contents of the sales reports

Analysis/graphs of the data is not necessary (but would be a nice to have I guess). I'm not really looking for something like AppSales Mobile above, I would like the raw data so I can do my own analysis and formatting. So far it looks like AppViz (listed above) is the best out there.

Any suggestions on what is good/available or should I just go roll my own?

Answer 1

www.appannie.com is a relatively new site that does all the things you mentioned. I think it's in line with what you are looking for because it's focused on being simple and easy to use.

It's free right now so you might want to give it a shot.
