Available tools 7

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

app
get_app_details
App metadata: name, developer, category, price, average rating, rating count and 1-5★ histogram (when available).
get_app_reviews
Fetch raw app reviews (unified schema across stores: rating/title/body/version/date/devReply/thumbsUp), 50 per page. Use for drill-down after mine_app_pain_points.
apps
search_apps
Search the iOS App Store and Google Play (both merged by default) to find apps and their ids. Use this FIRST when you only know an app name or a category.
mine
mine_app_pain_points
THE core tool: fetch recent reviews of any iOS/Android app, keep the negative ones, and cluster them into ranked pain points (title, sharePercent, severity 1-5, verbatim evidence quotes). Ideal for competitive research and product discovery. Cached 7 days (instant on repeat); a COLD server-side analysis takes 30-120s. If the result has "mode":"agent", it contains prepared negative reviews and "instructions" — do the clustering yourself and present it to the user.
pain
get_pain_trend
How an app's pain points changed over time: compares two archived analyses and labels each theme new / resolved / rising / falling / stable with share deltas (percentage points). Instant (archive read, no LLM). Default: latest vs ~30 days earlier. Returns a note when the app has fewer than two snapshots yet.
version
get_version_history
Per-version review stats (review count, average rating, first/last seen) — spot a rating crash right after a bad release. Android: aggregated from recent reviews. iOS: current version + release notes.
watch
watch_competitors
Continuous competitor monitoring (paid plans: Starter 2 apps weekly, Pro 15 apps daily). Manage the watchlist and the alert destination; digests of NEW 1-2★ reviews and NEW/RISING pain points are pushed to a Slack / Discord / any https webhook. action: list | add | remove | set_webhook | test.

App Pain API — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can App Pain API do?
It exposes 7 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_app_details, get_app_reviews, get_pain_trend, get_version_history, mine_app_pain_points, search_apps and 1 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is App Pain API working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 182 of 182 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 107 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect App Pain API?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does App Pain API need an API key?
No. App Pain API completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 7 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is App Pain API?
It answers our handshake in 107 ms on average, which is faster than 90% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is App Pain API open source?
We cannot say either way: 2 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
