Do you have a database, library or collection which you need to use on-the-go, even when you don't have web access? If you do, this is the application for you. Using CSV Lite you can easily search, sort and look through your collections when away from your computer. So start carrying your DVD and CD library, your book collection, your wine testing notes, or any other database, library or list with you! CSV Lite works by reading CSV files, a file format which almost all databases and applications like Excel, Filemaker, Access, Bento and others can export to. To get the CSV files on your iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch, you can import them from the local 'Files' app and all the cloud storage it supports, from attachments, directly from the internet, and other ways. And if you download the files directly from internet, it is trivial to download again in case the file has been updated (manually or at regular scheduled intervals). Once read, the app allows for highly customised ways of how to look at the data. Note that CSV Lite does not allow editing of your database; it is intended to be a versatile app for searching and visualising your data. See http://csvtouch.wordpress.com for more information and screenshots. Note that CSV Lite is a restricted version of the app CSV Touch, where you are limited to a maximum of 150 items shown at a time, whereas CSV Touch has no such restrictions. FEATURES - Download CSV files from almost anywhere - Fast search and sorting of items - Support for links in your data (click web address to open Safari, phone number to make a call, email address to open Mail) - Support for showing pictures from the web inside the application (requires internet connection) - Handles any number of files - Custom CSS support for visualising single items - Supports ",", ";", "|", space, or tab as column separator - Handles all languages, including Japanese (requires UTF8 encoding; other encodings might also work)

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Convert file at 4.4 against CSV Lite's 1.5. Convert file also leads on ratings volume (21 vs 2). CSV Lite's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Convert file holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 1.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Convert file has 21 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 36% of CSV Lite's written reviews are positive against 25% of Convert file's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

CSV Lite ships an update every 4 weeks, Convert file every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and October 2, 2026 respectively.
