Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
Graph IDE
This advanced tool allows users to create publication-quality graphs and documents from data files. It offers extensive customization for data visualization, including multiple graph types and user-defined markers. The application also supports cloud integration for workgroup collaboration and robust printing features.
- Data visualization (rectilinear, non-linear, 3D)
- Spreadsheet integration for data editing
- Publication-quality graph and document creation
- Custom marker creation
- Cloud service integration for collaboration
- Robust printing and page layout features

Graph IDE™ features, reliability and speed has been utilized by major corporations and is the tried and true data visualization (DV) tool by VVI®. It implements many DV qualities from rectilinear to non-linear and 3D graphs and blends that with the qualities of spreadsheet and graphic artist applications. The user interface is so advanced that no other application can even come close to its interface performance. Open a CSV or tab-delimited file in Files to launch a document with a spreadsheet of your data and make a graph of it. Make beautiful publication-quality graphs and documents for reports. View and edit specific data points using the many point-and-click features and use formulas and programs to generate data. Gain access to extraordinary features such as multiple coordinate graphs with mixed linear, logarithmic or Gregorian axes. Drag and drop easy-to-use graphs and spreadsheets as a starting point. Many DV applications specify markers from a predefine palette only. Graph IDE implements palettes of markers but also allows for the creation of your own markers via its one-of-a-kind recursive user interface where the tools to make a document are also available to make a marker. Printing and page layout for multi-page documents is particularly robust and Graph IDE implements both tiling and page pagination features along with page scrubbing and overviews. Graph IDE is accomplished because of its unique high-performance interface but also because behind the scenes it used advance programming concept implemented only by VVI®. Its source code is dynamically generated and uses code-theoretic transformations to produce highly optimized architectural-level structures. Such techniques are well beyond simple compiler optimizations. Graph IDE stands on its own as a robust application. It also implements corporate workgroup features such as retrieving and coordinating documents from a cloud service, either on the Internet or collocated at a corporate site within a secure LAN. It includes a custom-made JIT compiler for efficient animation and also formula generation in spreadsheets. The Graph IDE Xcode project is also available for customization. Use Graph IDE as a standalone retail product or as a beginning to improving your corporate workflows. Display and loading speed is particularly important when a Graph IDE programmable document is incorporated into enterprise applications.

The HSvu-app (HighScore View) displays all kinds of X-ray diffraction scans in various formats. Additionally, it shows and reports all details from an X-ray diffraction analysis performed by the HighScore analysis software from PANalytical (proprietary .HPF format). Experience the power and ease-of-use of HighScore with HSvu: - use six different graphical views for references, single and multiple scans, quantifications and 3-dimensional graphs - pan and zoom-in for details like you do with HighScore - get a complete overview on measurement conditions, scans, peaks, profiles and crystal structure data - switch easily between graphics and textual information - unravel the parameters used in a diffraction analysis and its history - create reports covering either pieces or the complete diffraction document HSvu is a display or viewing app. It shows existing data, but it doesn't perform an analysis nor does it change data. The following file formats are supported: - PANalytical .HPF (proprietary HighScore document) - PANalytical scans ( .XRDML) - PANalytical ( .2Dint), ASCII format integrated from a 2D area detector - ASD Inc. binary spectrum ( .ASD) - Philips binary scans ( .RD), ( .SD), ( .FP), ASCCI ( .UDF), ASCII( .LIS) - Bruker binary scans ( .RAW) versions 1, 2, 3 and 4 - ASCII scans ( .LST), ( .UXD), ( .XDD) - Crystallographic information file: ( .CIF) - General ASCII scan X-Y(-Z) table ( .ASC) - DBW-Rietveld ASCII scan ( .RFL) - GSAS ASCII scans ( .RAW), ( .XRA) - ICDD PD3 ASCII scan ( .PD3) - JCAMP ASCII scan ( .JDX or .JCP) - LH-Rietveld ASCII scan ( .LHP) - MDI ASCII scan ( .MDI) - Rigaku ASCII scan ( .ASC), ( .FI),( .RAS), binary scan ( .RAW) - Scintag binary scan ( .RAW) - Seifert ASCII scan ( .ASC) - Shimadzu binary scan ( .RAW) - Skrowonek UDS2 ASCII scan ( .UDS) - Stoe CSD-PROFAN ASCII scan ( .PRO),( .DAT), binary scan ( .RAW) - Thermo Scientifique (ARL) scan ( .XML) - ASD Inc. binary spectrum (.ASD) Please note: - HSvu requires high processing power and a large memory. The data file size handled by HSvu is limited by the device capabilities and its performance. For a proper operation at least an A6 chipset, as present in the iPhone 5, is recommended. More recent devices with a 64-bit processor (like the A7 chipset) provide a very smooth user experience. - To compare several scans you must insert them into a document in HSvu.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: HSvu at Free against Graph IDE's $69.00. HSvu also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 26.0). Graph IDE's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 3.0) and update cadence (monthly vs every 9 months). On ratings volume, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
