Can I view a histogram from Eye-Fi-transferred photos on Android?

I use an older DSLR with a very limited rear LCD, so I transfer images via an Eye-Fi card to a larger device for review when I can't shoot tethered. The official Eye-Fi app doesn't show a histogram, which makes exposure checking harder.
Is there an Android app that can automatically receive/import images as they are shot and display a histogram for the latest image?

Try Lightroom.
Basically configure your Eye-Fi to transfer photos to a given folder, then configure Lightroom to watch that folder and automatically import new images.
I haven't tried with an Android, but this is the basic setup for a laptop.

Generated from our catalog & community — verify before relying on it.
Based on the answers provided, the suggested workaround is Lightroom rather than a dedicated Android Eye-Fi app.
The idea is to set the Eye-Fi card to transfer images into a specific folder, then have Lightroom watch that folder and automatically import new files. Once imported, Lightroom can be used to inspect the images, including histogram information.
However, the answer specifically describes this as a laptop workflow and does not confirm an Android app that does the same thing automatically with Eye-Fi transfers. So from the information given, there is no confirmed Android Eye-Fi app recommendation; the practical verified option is a computer-based Lightroom watch-folder setup.
