I'm trying to get the app version from an tvOS app. This can be done by sending a request to https://itunes.apple.com/lookup?bundleId=<my-bundle.id> (see Search API).
Unfortunately, even for universal apps, that share the same bundle ID, I will only get version info for the iOS (iPod, iPad, iPhone) part. This is pretty much the content of the iTunes detail page for an iOS app.
Do you know if the tvOS app info is accessible via the search API? If yes, does anybody know how to do that?
I agree that info about the tvOS version should be included in search results. For example, 'supportedDevices' could include all supported devices including 'AppleTV4'.
It seems to work for Apple TV only apps at the moment (http://itunes.apple.com/lookup?id=1041644975), but not for universal (iOS + tvOS) apps (http://itunes.apple.com/lookup?id=950812012).
Hopefully, Apple is working on this :-)
Hi any update on this.
Apple has not updated documentation yet but you can use param entity=tvSoftware to restrict only Apple TV Apps.
Example:
https://itunes.apple.com/search?limit=30&term=tvshow%20shows&country=US&entity=tvSoftware
