Hi,
I have been playing with the category APIs to check the available categories.
These are the categories i have been able to collect:
["ANDROID_WEAR", "ART_AND_DESIGN", "AUTO_AND_VEHICLES", "BEAUTY",
"BOOKS_AND_REFERENCE", "BUSINESS", "COMICS", "COMMUNICATION", "DATING",
"EDUCATION", "ENTERTAINMENT", "EVENTS", "FINANCE", "FOOD_AND_DRINK", "GAME",
"HEALTH_AND_FITNESS", "HOUSE_AND_HOME", "LIBRARIES_AND_DEMO", "LIFESTYLE",
"MAPS_AND_NAVIGATION", "MEDICAL", "MUSIC_AND_AUDIO", "NEWS_AND_MAGAZINES",
"PARENTING", "PERSONALIZATION", "PHOTOGRAPHY", "PRODUCTIVITY", "SHOPPING",
"SOCIAL", "SPORTS", "TOOLS", "TRAVEL_AND_LOCAL", "VIDEO_PLAYERS", "WEATHER"]
Additionally games are also sub-divided in:
["Action", "Adventure", "Arcade", "Board", "Card", "Casino", "Casual",
"Educational", "Family", "Music", "Puzzle", "Racing", "Role Playing",
"Simulation", "Sports", "Strategy", "Trivia", "Word"]
Unfortunately the FAMILY category seems to be missing. I have seen in the GP scraper API and in the store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/category/FAMILY?age=AGE_RANGE2&hl=en
https://play.google.com/store/apps/category/FAMILY_CREATE?hl=en
I wonder if anyone came across this missing category already and in case it really isnt available (via android.clients api), are there any known alternatives to retrieve them?
Thanks!
