Open CSV opens any CSV file on your iPhone and shows it as a clean, scrollable table. No subscription, no ads, no account, and nothing ever leaves your device. Built for the moment someone sends you a CSV and your phone has nowhere good to open it. Features - Open CSV files from Files, Mail, or any app's share sheet - Frozen header row and first column stay put as you scroll wide tables - Tap any row to see every field laid out clearly - Sort by any column, ascending or descending - Filter rows with a quick search - Share the original file - Handles messy real-world files: quoted fields, embedded commas and line breaks, mixed encodings, and odd delimiters, without crashing Free and paid View the first 50 rows of any file for free. A single $2.99 purchase unlocks unlimited rows, forever. No subscription. What it does not do No editing, no cloud, no accounts, no analytics, no ads. It is a viewer, on purpose. Privacy Open CSV works fully offline. Your files are never uploaded, tracked, or shared. Data Not Collected. Built by Infamous Endeavors.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Open CSV at Free against AnyData's $1.99. Open CSV also leads on iOS requirement (18.0 vs 26.5). AnyData's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
