Example prompt: Can you pull up the details for the Android app com.spotify.music — I want to know the developer, category, content rating, and current average rating on the Play Store?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured metadata about a specific Android app by its package name, particularly developer identity, category, content rating, or rating score. Prefer this over general web scraping when you want a clean structured JSON response without parsing HTML. Note that install counts and individual reviews are not available through this endpoint.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent package name returns an error or empty result
- App not available in the US/English locale may return incomplete data
- Google Play page structure changes could break JSON-LD parsing
- Rate limiting or blocking by Google may cause transient failures
- Paid or region-locked apps may have incomplete public metadata

## How this service works

Google Play app details from the public app page's JSON-LD: name, developer, category, content rating, average rating and number of ratings, description. Install counts and reviews are not on that block and are not returned.

## Output

A JSON object containing the Android app's package ID, display name, developer name, developer URL, app category, content rating, average star rating (float), total rating count, a short description, the Play Store URL, and a timestamp of when the data was checked.
