DONT BUY THIS! Is a Scam!
1 out of 5 stars
Thumbs down graphic, would not recommend
Tech guru - 22 days ago
this a Scam to track your activity and sell your info to third parties, first off is connected to a stupid app that you must download and then all the files you want to put on your sd card simply goes into this new app you have to download, and then of top of it all the app doesn't even work is very stupid and very old looking. Is unresponsive and all your files in the phone sync into the app and if you want to delete it it will delete from the entire phone, So my question is what's the need for that stupid app ? Why can I just go into my sd card and save stuff in it ?? Why do I need to download your stupid app ???? Makes no sense! I'm going back to target right now and get my money back! This item is trash! No one should buy it!

Complete Garbage Waaaaay Overpriced!

wolfeye26 - 8 months ago
I was trying to find a card reader for a micro sd and this was the only option. I purchased this thinking it would work with my mac. It does not, it only works on the iphone. I have never experienced this before. A card reader should work with any device imo. Also, this is priced for about $4 online. Same exact brand. Same exact item. This is an extreme mark up. This is the second item I bought from Target this month which resulted in a complete loss. The other item was an Arris modem which is not obsolete and does not work with Xfinity. I found out the hard way after two months of hell. Target should not be selling items that are obsolete and items that do not work as intended. They no longer stock this, so hopefully they fired their buyer who though this item was a good idea to include in the Target line up.

Works fine. But note, you have to have the little cable plugged in the right way around. If you switch it end for end, it fits, but doesn’t work.

When connected to an iPhone it makes you download/go through an app. After all of that, the images still don't show up. It worked when attached to my Macbook. For the price, you can get an Apple one.

asdg - 2 years ago
Apple user here: For some reason this reader requires a 3rd party app. Unlike other readers, you can’t just plug it in and import files from your card. The app that it requires isn’t easy to use either. Get another reader or apple reader if you’re on iPhone.

Hi there, thank you for reaching out to us. We are very sorry that the app is needed. This is because of connectivity issue with the apple devices. Please reach out to us at 18005929541 or support@sakar.com quoting ticket number 42866, we will try and help you fix this issue. Thank you.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my card reader everyday. It works good for my SD card for my dash camera. It’s easy to use and I can go through my card to decide what I want to keep for my dash cam. I also use it for the photos on my phone.

It’s a great idea for a product, but I can’t say it was convenient. It took forever for my pictures to upload, and it didn’t work with my MacBook. It’s not much cheaper than the Apple version, so I’d say it’s not a good alternative.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had the Vivitar Universal card reader dor a couple weeks now and it’s great. I love the fact that its small and can easily be bought with you anywhere. This is perfect for anyone who takes Photos and is an all in one device. I recently just took this ok vacation with me and it was so easily to use and connect.
