title: Public Official API for Google Play?
body: <p>I was wondering if there was an official Google Play API available yet? Having looked at old postings there did not appear to be one circa 2010/11 but things may have changed?</p>
  
  <p>There is still the unofficial:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://code.google.com/p/android-market-api/" rel="nofollow">https://code.google.com/p/android-market-api/</a> but that does not look to be maintained. I also came across <a href="http://dev.appaware.com/" rel="nofollow">http://dev.appaware.com/</a> which has an API that you could use to find applications registered via their service.</p>
  
  <p>However what I would like to be able to do is retrieve the apps within a category and list their details on a website.</p>
  
  <p>Any pointers etc. greatly appreciated.</p>
