Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: CSV Master at 3.7 against SQLite's 3.0. CSV Master also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and review sentiment (33% vs 0%). SQLite's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
