Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Go to settings, apps & notificationsp
Find and select the app you want to move
Select Storage
Select the SD you want
This only works if the app allows to move to SD, if the app doesn't show the storage option you need to root

Make sure the Developers option is turned on. Then go to the bottom section "Apps" of the Developers options. There is a choice to "Force allow apps to external". Turn that on and then under settings, then apps, then storage, it will allow you move many of the apps to the external SD card.

[Q] CM6 (Android 2.2) - Is there a way to move multiple apps to SD at once?

I am running CM6 and liking it so far. I do miss one feature though - apps2sd. That just automatically took care of moving all my apps at once to the SD card.
2.2 has built in move to SD, but it's tedious. I have to go into the dreaded Applications page under settings which takes forever to load, then select each app and then click on the "move to SD" button for each one.
Is there a way to move multiple or all apps to SD in CM6 at once?

please I need any way for moving apps to sd card
but not apps like in play store because they don't work with all apps
The only working way is to install software like DirectoryBind apk. With this app you can move all data to sd card but you need to have phone rooted.

Is it possible for the note 8 without root to install/move games with APK to sd card?

Is there any way other than root to allow apps to be installed/moved on the sdcard with it's data folder? Or is that only something root can do?
And what about adoptable storage? Sdcards can be modified to trick the note 8 to use adoptable storage right? Can IT allow full games and not just apk's on it? If not, then what's the purpose of adoptable storage?
And if i want to upgrade the sdcard to a twice as big one, do i then have to format the phone? or can i copy the data on the sd through the phone's usb to my pc, enable adoptable on the new and move the stuff back and then format the old for a different device?
Settings > Apps > app/game you want moving > Storage > Change > External
That's not what i need. That way just moves the apk, not it's data which i need.
Strange. It moves both for me.
Have you tried manually moving the data folder yourself?
@Mr.Ash.Man (apparently i can't press "add a comment" as it just disappears with nothing else happening when i click it) I tried some years ago, but then just got the error that the data files are missing.
You can also go into the Developer Menu and turn on the setting to force apps to be able to move to SD. I've done this previously and found that about 80% of my apps were moved but a majority of the data files were still stored on the internal memory.
Yep, last time i tried, the app complained about missing data.
Basically, if the App supports moving the data to the SD card, then it will do so automatically when you move the apk to the SD card. But keep in mind not all apps support this, so it may be a problem with the apps you are trying to move.
Yeah, it's the majority of the data i need to move. The apk's themself barely take up anything.
@cmwade77 , Yeah, 90% of the games i tried to move only moved the apk, not it's data. So apparently root is my only option which i don't like as 1: warranty gone, 2: requires me to wipe the phone.
The poster question is yet not answered.
Is it possible to have the sd card formatted as an adoptable storage?
adb sm partition did not work as on note 4/s7.

Move Apps to SD Card

Is there a way to force move apps to the SD-card. In Debug Mode it isn't possible to tick the "Force allow apps on external storage", it remains greyed out.
Anyone has an idea on how to do it? The phone has only 16GB internal, which limits it a lot.

Open the Settings app.
Go into Apps & notifications.
Access the app you want to move to the SD card.
Select Storage.
If the app supports the feature, you will see an option to change where the app is stored. Go ahead and change it to the inserted SD card.

I don't have that kind of feature in my realme c3 phone, what should I do?
