WiFi Chipset INFO
It simply shows WiFi chipset vendor.
New update v1.0.3:
To avoid misunderstanding, the app now only shows WiFi chip vendor from the WiFi MAC address. It does not check for the BroadPwn issue anymore.

Works great on Galaxy S5. Click My wifi then Detect. Thank you dev!
It's fake. Unable to check anything
The app only performs a lookup of the OUI of the wifi MAC. It shows the owner of the mac address, which often is the telephone manufacturer and not the wifi chipset manufacturer.
App appears to identify the manufacturer of the phone or tablet, not that of the chipset. Edit: No, this app is fundamentally broken. It identifies the WiFi Chipset Manufacturer of my Moto G as "Motorola Mobility LLC" and of my Nexus 7 as "ASUSTek COMPUTER INC." In both cases the manufacturer of the WiFi chipset is Qualcomm. This app appears to assume that the WiFi MAC Address identifies the chipset manufacturer. In general that is false. The MAC address usually identifies a subassembly manufacturer.
BEWARE! Falsely reporting users are safe. It only tells you the manufacturer of the entire device via MAC Address. This is **NOT** the same as the specific WiFi chip on the motherboard, which many users will actually have a vulnerable Broadcom 43xx chip. Please research your actual motherboard specifications and consult your device manufacturer for any necessary security updates.
Reports "Huawei" with Huawei phones with Broadcom WiFi chips.
It just check the phone manufacturer not the wireless chipset. This app iz BS
This app is just designed to display ads it does not actually work. As others have said it displays the manufacturer of the phone not of the wifi chipset. It only seems to work properly on the author's personal Galaxy Note 4 (or at least that's what they keep insisting).
Totally useless if you want to check for broadpwn vulnerability. Says "Murata" on my phone which might or might not be a broadcom chip....this garbage does NOT tell you the name of the chipset!
Simply guessed based on the WiFi MAC address. This is by no means reliable. Does not do as it says.
l love it
100% working app. I have used it for other device's mac addresses and boom it showed real info and manufacturer's name. Brilliant!!!
