    I need to read some text data from a server when the app starts (iOS only).
    Its basically a list of objects and values that will grow over time (manually edited on the server), and every time the app starts, the list will be downloaded.

    A quick google search gave me 3 options really, sql database, json and csv file.

    Since I don't write any data and just read it, csv sounds easiest and best solution for my problem, but since I have no experience with any of this options, I would really welcome some suggestions from you guys.

    Thanks!
