For Gameloft games have a look at this app and thread. You can also use androids built in 'Move to SD' option if you go to Settings - Applications - Desired Game.

Yeah, I use GL to SD and have moved 12gb of game data to my external SD card. Works great.
Install the app, hit menu and select move data. Select the app you want data moves for and run it. Then you can just run the game from the app or hit mount in the app, then menu and select exit and open the app from your home or app screens.

for the moment not possible! Maybe in the future someone will make a rom who supports that
Gl to sd card only moves files. Apps will not work later. For example, I moved Max Payne to external sd card, and then when I launched the game, it asked to download missing files. What we need over here is an app that will automatically rout to sd card when clicked.
I tried App2SD, Link2SD and GLtoSD and none worked except for breaking Google Play, the only solution i found was Directory Bind.

Thanks, will give it a try. Weird thing, i've spent like an hour trying to figure out why can't move apps to sd...
Well Directory Bind can't move Apps it only moves folders, so you can move all the SD data and some of the folders containing the Apps but when you move it you have to leave the original folder on internal memory because it makes it impossible to delete, so you just have to delete the contents.
Anyone tried "super mount".app made by lidroid
Would this work?
I opened the script file using notepad, would you just change where it says "external_sd" to "extSdCard" and it would bind the folder and allow games to access the data from the external SD?
Just asking because I'm not sure if this would work on the S3...
I have run out of 'USB storage' however I have a 32gb external sd which is going to waste because I am unable to move all the data from apps that mount to many gigabytes
Please tell me there's a way to move the data ?! Thanks
Also I'd obviously like to be able to play the game/app while it's in my external sd

I'm sure that only moves the app, not the data required to play the game such as nova 3 has 1.7gb data to download after you've installed the app
can anybody help with this.........
I've found that a lot of people is upset about the impossibility of install your games or apps on the external SD Card, you have 32gb and you cant used them... it's a shame...:crying::crying::crying::crying:
BUT :victory: After losing my whole day on testing and research I wanted to share a simple way (Not the only one) to move the data of your games or apps from the Internal Sd to the (Real) Sd Card
I'll try to keep it simple: (You need to root your phone)
I'll do it for Need For Speed Most Wanted

1. Install your game (or app)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Run the game
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Wait for the game to download the data and play it just once (Just to know that it works :silly
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Install this amazing tool by slig
DirectoryBind
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1410262
Thanks dude
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. Open DirectoryBind
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Open the menu
Menu button on your phone genius
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. Select "Add new entry"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. On "Enter Source" You put the folder of the External Sd Card that you want to use
(For example - a new folder on my sd card named "mnt\ext_card\My apps data\Android\data\com.ea.games.nfs13_na")
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9.On "Target Path You put the original folder where the data is
(For example -"mnt\sdcard\Android\data\com.ea.games.nfs13_na")
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10. Check "Transfer files from target to data"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
11. Wait for the app to finish the process THIS CUT THE DATA FROM THE INTERNAL SD AND PASTE IT ON THE EXTERNAL SD CARD :good:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
12. Now everything should be ok and you just have to check that the little icon on the left of the link is GREEN
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
13. Open your game
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14. PLAY!!!!!!!!
Dont forget to say thanks

For the DCIM ( The camera images ) There's the option inside the camera app to chose the internal sd or the external sd ... However... YEAP :good: It works for other folders.
I suggest you to take a lot at the original threat in order to know more.

link2sd required partitioning on sd card which is quite complicated.. using this directory bind, there is no partition required.. simple tool..
Is there any other way to move our data folder to ext card without rooting ? thanks in advance !!
Hi
Someone plz tell me how to move fb and whatsapp in SDcard. From Manage Application Move to SDcard option is disabled also in App2SD unable to transfer it.
Is it possible????It consumes a lot of space....
For moving apps those do not support to move in SD by default, you need root access on your device & then use any app such as "DroidSail Super App2SD" to move them forcefully to SD card.

Moving facebook on sd card every time you open it, it will erase the data and you will have to repeat the account access.
If you have rooted device, you can use titanium backup to move them to SD.
The app has been moved to SD card, but i am not sure about data stored by these apps.
Data was still in phone memory, i guess.

I reply here because I spent a lot of time searching through very old posts and trying outdated methods. I didn't know that actually today there is a very easy solution to move whatsapp media folder to SD card. It perfectly worked on my Samsung Galaxy A3 A320FL:
1) Root (I used twrp + magisk method)
2) Download "App2SD" (the original by Vicky Bonick; it's free) and follow instructions on how to create partitions
3) Use "folder mount (app analyzer)" feature, which apparently was not considered in the old posts in this forum, so I suppose it was recently added to Apps2SD.
It's like folder mount, but it's pre-set for some common apps, including Whatsapp. With this feature, you can successfully move Whatsapp media folder to SD, in one clic.
In my case everything worked fine. When I reboot I have to re-mount folder, but it takes one second (just open Apps2SD, tap Folder Mount, slide "whatsapp other").
Welcome. I miss the space on my phone. I root supersu. How can I move programs to the memory card. Please explain and advice.

It should work if your phone is rooted. There is no other way to move data at the moment. I also have NFS and Asphalt 7 and they work fine with the data moved to the external SD card. Here's a video how to use it.
I tried folder mount, it works but beware if you have an exfat formatted (if you format with the mega) sd card as it may be prone to corruption. I have now formatted it to fat32, and it seems more stable

They work just moved the game such as NFS, etc. but I can not move a lot of programs that take up space. FolderMount sees it as 0 bytes. I also tried to do a Titanium backup but it does not work. Do you have any ideas?

Do a manual move by tapping + on the upper part of the app, give it a name and manually look for the source folder in the internal memory. The app will automatically generate a destination folder then tap the check symbol on top. You can do this with any app as long as you know where the data is located on the internal storage.

well I'll try to do that! Unfortunately I can not find all the places where applications are installed to move them. I will continue to try to.
Moving the application found on the SD card, but you can not see it in the program, either as a couple or as an application. You can only see these in pairs! What I'm doing wrong

You can use a file explorer to see what folders are inside the internal storage. They are usually named appropriately e.g. Copilot app has a folder named com.alk.copilot.eumarket.primeumeupan in the internal storage and has all the data inside. Some apps are small so you won't find any folder for them as they are not required.
