SD Insight
SD Insight is a free, fast and easy to use application that you use on your cell phone. Within seconds the application reads the technical details from your SD card and displays the information in an easy to understand format.
In the world of SD cards, the brand visible on the card is often a vendor that labels other people’s chips with it’s own branding. For example, a major SD card brand such as Kingston will place their brand on SD cards that are actually made by others such as Toshiba or SanDisk. SD Insight displays the actual manufacturer not the vendor’s brand.
It is not possible for SD Insight to be aware of every possible SD card manufacturer – as such, it is possible that the manufacturer will be displayed as “Unknown”. A reading of “Uknown” does not necessarily mean that the SD card is fake, but rather that the card is made by a brand or manufacturer that is not currently identified in the SD Insight app. We are continuing working to improve the database of manufacturers in the SD Insight app, and announce our software release updates to our Twitter account at @sd_insight.
Using SD Insight, you can also view technical details about the internal eMMC and SDIO devices in your cell phone.

It's the only app that can really verify authenticity and manufacturing date of memory cards. Nothing compares to it. Too bad this app is not compatible with Nougat and newer OS. Only run this app on Marshmallow or older android. Hold off on OS update if you want to continue using this app. Keep an old android fone handy.
This app works perfectly fine with Android 7.1.1. Please re-enable it for this Android version on the Play Store so it's not necessary to enable "install from unknown sources". Thanks.
Works great on my old Asus phone (using Android Lollipop), but too bad this app isn't compatible with my newer Samsung phone (using Android 10). It seems this app hasn't been updated for quite some time.
This app is great. however, this app was not updated for long time. my Lexar SD card until now is origin was unknown but my lexar is legitimate. To the developer of this application. please update database of application. Because most of counterfeited SD card says invalid SD cards
it worked immediately! no running around. just insert card, download SD Insight, and all the info you need (or dont) is right there!
Very dissapointed that it says this app is not compatable with my LG V20 running Android 7.0 Please update the app so it works on my phone.
Incredible quick little utility. I use it to verify all SD cards.
Super app just fast as rocket... Total info in just a second... This is called Application... Thanks..
what is CRC7 ? my SD cards (both) show CRC7 : N/A .plse explain whether CRC7 is mandatory to check original SD card. one req : Plse provide support to read USB OTG cards. HTC Desire 816 dual sim reporting
this app shows that it requires only 667kb worth of space but whenever I try to download, it'll end up showing 69mb needed
I hope theres still update to be compatible in nougat version mobile. thank you.
Just installed this and it gave you all the information about SD card . Thank you again
It dont tell the speed of card it only tells the brand, Memory, and manufacture date.
very usefull app for different local or origional memory cards
Useful apps so far in the ps,but why not supported on Android 10?
My Samsung j1 ace but inserted micro sd working real capacity 128GB are passed on test!
UNFORTUNATELY DOESNT WORK WITH SAMSUNG S10+ (Incompatible)
Company is really a good one with a human face. Thanks for this app.
hopefully there's an update for checking new SD Card
Interesting app. I bought 32 GB SD Card. Inserted it and clicked on this app. Instantly, the manufacturers name appeared INVALID (some will show UNKNOWN). though it showed the SD card size. Even the seller was surprised. From the same maker, I inserted another and it was genuine (it showed the manufacturers name). Thanks much., P.S,, It can be updated or upgraded to work in higher Android versions also.
