I read few pages of the topic and some people seem to say that it doesn't work anymore

You can also try link2sd app in play store

I have read this topic about moving apps to SD card, only read few pages but it seems that over 4.0 firmware, Google stopped it so you can't move apps to a second partition of SD card, correct me if I'm wrong,

Does it work? As I think I seen someone saying once moved to a second partition the app didn't open

You can't test by yourself?

Use the Site search and you'll find dozens of threads on it, and search for App called Directory Bind because that's what you need if your phone's Rooted.

Thanks foe your reply I am not rooted just got this phone today. And I am sorry about double posting

If you're not rooted then you're out of luck.
Well... I would not call it out of luck because technically the Move-to-SD option is no longer necessary since the apps are already stored on the internal storage and no longer in their own small /data partition.

While in the camera app, click on the settings icon. It's the one shaped like a gear. Scroll to the second to last option, which is "Storage." Select "Phone" for internal storage or "Memory card" for MicroSD.
Let me know if that is what you were looking for.
As I stated in my original post in the camera app there is no option to choose your storage

Always the best idea to ask questions in the actual ROM thread itself.

It wasn't a sarcastic comment.
How are we supposed to know what ROM you are using? Those threads are there for a reason.

Does your memory card show up under Settings/Storage?
Yeah, shows up in storage, shows available space and unmount and format. Tried amounting and mounting but no change.
It also shows up in any file explorer and I can access all files, but no luck on the apps listed .its not really a massive problem as I will live with it till official release comes out with, but if it's a simple fix or me just being thick I will sort it.had issues with S2 and memory card on custom roms, but this has really thrown me due to it being there but not in some apps?

I'm sure you already have, but while in the Gallery, have you selected the menu/View by/Content in device?
Yeah tried that no change. At least the battery seems even better so counters all the time spent trying to figure it out

And you've taken the card out and put it back in and tried again? Did a complete battery pull, etc??

[Q] Galaxy S3, SD Card and Apps!

Sorry for my stupidness, but I would like to know if there is a definitive way to move apps'data to your SD Card.
I am searching all over the web for about 1 week, and i was not able to find a answer!
How do I move my apps'data to SD Card on a JB Based ROM?
If I cant, what about in ICS based ROM? Do you know anyone?
Thanks, and best regards!
(PS: sorry for my horrible english)
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
The two main methods would be Directory bind, or ExternalSd2InternalSD
I personally use External2Internal Mod and it works flawlessly. All apps have been moved over to external SD without a single issue. All games, basically everything..
Thanks! But how do I use this?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Depends which you want to try and use lol
Search for each here on xda. Both threads have quite detailed instructions.
I'd suggest the ext2internal as I've seen less issue discussed compared to directorybind

How to move apps to SD card?

Hey guys I got a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7" and I'm trying to move my apps to SD card as my internal memory is almost full. I've tried some apps from Google play but none of them work with me. In settings/application manager there's isn't the option to move the app to external storage. How to solve this? Any help would be nice. (PS:sorry if this is the wrong area).

read it. it should work with a Tab too. in my phone works very well.
Questions should be posted in Q&A forums, not Development forums.

Not all apps can be moved to SD. There are system level apps which should stay in internal memory itself. Try app2sd or link2sd
umm, titanium backup pro

How can i move apps to sd card?

Well... i'm using Android Revolution HD and I thought after flashing new rom my problem came to an end.
I'm really need to move apps to my ExSD card because i can't install nothing now.
And i've already uninstalled all my games (all of them - GTA, NFL, and more).
But now i don't have any free storage at all and i can't install nothing.
There is a way to move apps to ExSD card?
a new kernel maybe?
Use
LINK2SD.

GL to SD - i used it before... sorry to tell you but this is crap.
it didn't moved GL games to the ExSD card, plus the app deleted all the games DATA.
and i don't have GL games anymore.
i'm looking for way to moves app
and btw this is what link2sd shows me:
there are far more solutions than GL to SD from that search.
I already said that LINK2SD will not work.
