API to retrieve total iOS rating from app store?

Tags:

ios

I can retrieve recent iOS reviews like this:

fetch(`https://itunes.apple.com/${IOS_LANG_CODE}/rss/customerreviews/id=${IOS_ID}/sortBy=mostRecent/json`)

However, I could not find any endpoint to retrieve the overall rating of an app in the appstore.(overall rating = the one you see big in the app store, not the single ratings). Also I can not find any official documentation from apple on this topic. Does anyone know how to accomplish this?

I think I might be very late to answer this but YES there is an absolutely free way to get the rating of the application. You can use

http://itunes.apple.com/lookup?id=<app_id>

to get a JSON with all the basic info related to your application. The key that you are looking for is averageUserRating. This will return a Double value and indicate the exact current iOS Rating.

To quickly check a sample, have a look at the details of the Amazon app(com.amazon.Amazon)
https://itunes.apple.com/lookup?id=297606951
