A CSV file open as a table in Smart CSV on iPhone

And the everyday things, done properly

  • Opens almost any CSV

    Comma, semicolon, tab or pipe; UTF-8, UTF-16, Shift_JIS, GB18030, Windows code pages and more, detected for you.

  • Big files stay smooth

    Rows are read a page at a time, so a file with hundreds of thousands of rows scrolls like a short one.

  • Sort by several columns

    Hold a header to sort, or stack sorts in the panel. Numbers sort 9 before 10.

  • Sum a selection

    Select cells to see count, sum and average, and copy them straight into a spreadsheet.

  • Columns that know what they hold

    Numbers, dates, checkboxes, links and images, without changing a byte of your file.

  • Freeze, hide, resize

    A live layout panel for widths, alignment, frozen columns, zoom and row height.

  • Paste a table

    Copied cells from a spreadsheet, a web page or an AI chat become a new CSV file.

  • Keyboard ready

    On an iPad or a tablet with a keyboard: arrows, Enter to edit, and the usual shortcuts.

  • 47 languages, light and dark

    From العربية to 中文, in a calm paper-and-ink design.

What people are saying

Reviews from the App Store and Google Play, word for word.

  • This is one of the only apps that allows the proper display of CSV files. The UI stays smooth across even with files that contain thousands of rows, and it can even search through them effortlessly. The developer is very responsive and quickly pushed an update to address an issue I was having with a given file.

  • Great app! Looks beautiful works well and it’s fast. It’s the only csv viewer which allowed me to view a 200 mb csv file. Keep up the good work. Just purchased the pro version

  • There was an issue with the file, but the developer helped to find the problem. So the app works fine, and right now, after trying everything else, I think it’s the best instrument for viewing the csv in the play market
    Perfect

Questions

How do I open a CSV file on my phone?

Install Smart CSV, then share the file to it from Files, Mail, Google Drive or a chat app, or tap + → Open CSV in the app. It works out the separator and the encoding on its own and shows the file as a table. See Open a file.

Is Smart CSV free?

Yes. The free version opens any file and includes search, sorting, filters, column types, charts and PDF and Excel export. On big files it reads a limited number of rows. Smart CSV Pro removes every limit, as a subscription or a one-time purchase. See Free & Pro.

Can it open large CSV files?

Yes. Smart CSV imports the file into a database on your phone and reads it a page at a time, so files with hundreds of thousands of rows scroll smoothly. The first open of a big file shows a progress bar; later opens are instant.

Does Smart CSV upload my data?

No. Your files are copied into the app and stay on your phone. The AI assistant sends only your question and your column names, never the values in your cells.

Will it change my original file?

No. Smart CSV works on its own copy. A file in iCloud Drive, Google Drive or another app is never changed there; when you share the file, the copy you send has your edits.

Can I convert CSV to PDF or Excel on my phone?

Yes. Open the file, tap ⋯ and choose PDF or Excel. See CSV to PDF and CSV to Excel.

Your next CSV file deserves better than a wall of commas.

Free on the App Store and Google Play.
