I have bought a new tablet (Asus k019) and a new sd card because I can only use 4/8gb of internal storage,but I can't download any game/app bigger than 1.5 gb (I have 1gb left on the internal storage) because it says I don't have enough memory and any picture I recieve on whatsapp or any picture I take it's saved on the internal storage (called /sdcard/ in file manager and the card /MicroSD/ ,btw).On my old phone all my media it's automatically saved on the sd card,not on the internal storage.How can I make the sd card the default location for apps/media?

You will have to set it in each app. Also even if you move the app to the sdcard most of the data will still be on internal storage. This is due to the way android boots things up. The sdcard is not made to run games off of.

I dont think that app has the option. The main reason is mostly due to google removing the base code for SD cards. Each OEM adds them back in their own way so there is no universal way to code an app for it.
Check the settings. I dont use it nor does anyone that I know. We all moved away when FB bought it.
How do I save pictures to the Moto E (2015) SD card? I've opened the camera application and slid my finger from right to left which brought up numerous options--none of which were the SD card.
P.S. My phone does recognize the SD card when looking in Setting -> Storage.
Thoughts? Thnx!
Hello,
So I have a problem. I took a photo and was trying to upload it on WhatsApp but my phone would not let me. I checked my Gallery and it said 0 Pictures/Videos. The phone decided to delete (or hide) all my pictures and videos. Now, when I go into my phone's Settings/Storage and USB/SD Card, I can see that there is data worth 3.6GB that is taking space on my SD card but it's not showing up anywhere.
I tried to re-scan my SD card using the "media Re.Scan." app but it didn't work. I have been wracking my brains at it for a couple of days now.
I just want to know if there is any way to force my phone to read the data that is there on my SD card, or to recover those pics and files that are hiding on my SD card. Please note: My phone is not rooted and I formatted the SD card as an internal storage so it only works on my phone. I cannot connect it to my laptop (Macbook). I tried to connect the phone with the USB cable and it does not show up on my laptop at all.
Please help! I need my pics and vids!
Thanks in advance!
I have my pictures in sd card and in internal memory also but as my sd card is just 4 GB so memory gets full. Actually i am confused that whether my pictures is replaced with another pictures when memory was full or they got deleted accidentally.
My internal memory is showing full but there is not a single image or app on my internal storage. Please help me find my lost pictures.
I have tried photo recovery tool but it gives me my lost picture's thumbnail but not the full picture.
I have a moto g5 with sd card as internal memory and android 7. Since today I cannot save fotos (when I try to make a photo it says camera error, with screenshots it says not enough memory space, but there are 59gb free), cannot sent fotos or music (with whatsapp it says: the format of the item is not compatible, when I want to send as email it says the attachment is not found on the phone ). Also I cannot download apps. It is possible to copy the fotos and music to the laptop. Is there anyone who has an idea? I would be so happy.
I found the problem, quite simple: damaged micro sd-card
