Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: CSVReader at 4.6 against Code Viewer's 3.4. CSVReader also leads on review sentiment (60% vs 49%) and ratings volume (118 vs 18). Code Viewer's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
