Import a CSV and see it as a table at a glance. To change something, tap a row and edit it in a form. Scrolling and tapping around the table won't change your data by accident. Your files stay plain CSV on your device — no sign-up, no ads, no proprietary format. Saved locally by default, with optional cloud sync in Pro+.

Features • Table view by default — see every column at a glance, tap a row to edit it • Three view modes — Table, Cards, and Text — switch anytime • Cards view — show just the columns you need, then sort or group rows • Create new files or import existing CSV / TSV • Search — find rows by keyword • Import CSV / TSV in UTF-8, Shift_JIS, or EUC-JP — no garbled text • Share a plain CSV or TSV file to other apps • Copy a table as Markdown for notes or docs Plans • Free — up to 5 files, with every viewing and editing feature • Pro (one-time purchase) — unlimited files • Pro+ (subscription) — everything in Pro, plus iCloud sync From work and study to everyday lists, CSVly makes CSV files simple to handle on your phone. * Terms of Use (Apple Standard EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
