# Convert Text vs CSV Tools

The clearest difference is rating: CSV Tools at 5.0 against Convert Text's 4.4. CSV Tools also leads on iOS requirement (13.1 vs 18.0). Convert Text's advantage is ratings volume (42 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Convert Text sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and CSV Tools sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

CSV Tools holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Convert Text has 42 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.

Convert Text ships an update every 13 months, CSV Tools every 19 months. Both last shipped on September 14, 2026.
