Detect a user wrote a comment about an app

Question

Is there a way that you can track a user left a comment about your app at Play Store? What I'm looking for is to automatically detect it. I'd like my app to know whether the user actually left a comment or not. Something like a listener, but anyway I can use an external API if needed.

Answer 1

I don't think there's any official API to work with the Play Store.

There are, though, many unofficial APIs out there; This one seems promising, if it's up to date. You can use it to grab all the comments on your app, then use the AccountManager to get the user Google ID, and compare their ID with the commentors IDs to check whether they have left a comment or not.
