You may want to move your Android apps to an SD card if you keep running out of space and insufficient memory. Internal memory on Android phones can vary from 4GB to 32GB or higher. Much of that is already taken up by the operating system and preloaded software. If you have a low storage capacity phone, you really can’t install much on your Phone. After you start downloading apps, taking photos, downloading movies and saving music on the device, you risk running out space. Fortunately, a number of tablets and phones come with microSD card slots that allow you to expand your storage capacity by inserting a micro SD card.
Here’s how to move apps to the microSD card using Android’s application manager. I’m using the LG Optimus Exceed 2 prepaid phone for Verizon. If I go to the storage settings, I’ll show you how this phone is pretty limited on space right out of the box. This phone only has 4GB of internal memory. So I’m going to expand the storage with an inexpensive micro-SD card. Once it’s mounted, I will have just under 30GB additional memory available. Now I’m ready to move apps off of the phone’s memory and onto the card. In the Application Manager, I’ll select the app I want to move. On the details page, there will be a Move button. Right now it says Move to Phone because the app is already on the card. I’ll move it back to the phone and then I’ll move it to the SD card. When the app is stored on the phone, the button now says Move to SD Card. So I’ll just tap that button to move it back. The time it takes depends on the size of the app. This is great but there are some apps that cannot be moved and most of those are system apps so just be aware of that. The Move to SD Card button will be greyed out on those.
Now that I can get apps off the main storage of the phone, I can download more games or whatever without worrying about space. This phone only accepts a maximum of a 32GB card but others can use much larger cards.
