Convert CSV to Excel
on iPhone, privately.

A CSV export from your bank or Shopify is not a spreadsheet you can format, filter or chart. Filemorph turns it into a real XLSX workbook on your iPhone.

Filemorph converting a CSV export to an Excel spreadsheet on iPhone

Bank statements, e-commerce order exports, analytics downloads: most of them land as CSV, a plain grid of text with commas between values. Filemorph reads that file and writes it into an actual Excel workbook, so it opens ready to sort, format and chart instead of just to view.

Filemorph writes numeric-looking values as real numeric cells rather than generic text, so sums, sorting and formulas work correctly the moment the file opens in Excel, Numbers or Google Sheets. Every other value, including dates and IDs, is preserved exactly as written in the CSV.

How to convert CSV to Excel on iPhone

Pro
  1. Add your CSV file. Open Filemorph and pick the .csv file from Files or the Share sheet.
  2. Choose Excel. Tap Convert and choose Excel (XLSX) as the output format.
  3. Save or share. Tap Convert. The spreadsheet saves locally, ready to open in Excel, Numbers or Sheets.

In the app: Convert → CSV → Excel.

Why convert CSV to Excel?

A CSV is just text with commas, while an XLSX workbook keeps column formatting and the option to add formulas or charts. Converting a raw export into Excel is what turns a data dump into something you can actually analyze.

Is it private?

Yes. Unlike web converters that upload your files to a server, Filemorph converts every file locally using Apple's frameworks. Nothing leaves your device, and it works with no internet connection. This operation is part of Filemorph Pro ($29.99/year, 7-day free trial on monthly and annual plans).
