Move app to SD card - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
As my LG G3 has only 16 GB of memory, I'm using the app AppMgr III from the Google play store in order to move the app from internal memory to SD card. The problem is each time the app is updated, it is again installed in the internal memory and then, I have to move it manually. Is there a way through an option to tell that the updated app has to be installed on the SD card?
Thanks for your help.

I started a thread back in May when i got the phone. Since in SIII they have one partition now for all apps the app2sd is not required. If you see you'll have one huge SD space 11.gb available for all apps and that's the SD card so you dont need or can't use app2SD.
But I have already used the SD card (phone's) 's 3.4 GB solely for Apps. Now I want to transfer the bulky apps to the "real" microSD card. I hope It was possible...
you can use the app from google play; gl to sd!
it's working great but you need to have ROOT

[Q] Moving apps from device memory to internal USB memory

Hi All,
I recently bought a Samsung S2 mobile which has an internal USB memory of 11.5 GB and a device memory of 2 GB. I didn't buy an external SD card.
As I install apps on the phone, the device memory is getting full. Android apps like app2SD and astro file manager only facilitate in moving movable apps to "external SD card". Is there an app or a way by which I can free up my device memory by moving the apps into USB memory?

i am seriously not aware of such app but by rooting your phone you can do that but also many apps or their widgets might not work properly

If you're on ICS, it's built into the system if the app makes it available.
Go to Application settings, and look at the app. There is a button that says "Move to SD card". That should move it to your internal SD card, or what is also called the "internal USB memory".

[Q] How can I move my apps to sd card

I'm trying to find out what I have to do so that I can move apps from internal SD card to my external SD card. On my old phone it was an option available when you click on an app in setting I could move app to SD card so I could free up space on my internal SD card memory and be able to install more apps. As it is now I have to

Need Root!
What kdz do you have? If you have a p769 20f kdz or (lgms769 10b) You can enable it by adding
Code:
ro.lge.capp_move_sdcard=true
to the build.prop (/system/build.prop)
Please make a cwm or twrp backup before messing with the build.prop

[problem] Move apps to SD

Hi. After installing app from playstore, i try to move the app from internal storage to SD card through app manager in Settings.
The thing is, i notice that the space in SD card remains the same even after moving the app to SD card.
When I delete an app which has been moved to SD card, the space is freed up in internal memory.
Is this what is happening with all others too? Let me know. I could not install a few apps coz of memory limitations of just 4 GB ROM. Move to SD card is not helping me at all. Thank you.
