First, let's try to make a copy of the application without any root or special applications there. For example, the same Titanium Backup requires superuser rights. But what if we need a copy of an application that has already been updated on the market and has acquired advertising or refuses to work normally. In this case, it would be good to save the old application before dumping it to your personal archive. Of course, you can find applications of the required version in numerous directories of the type, but for one or two applications, I do not do this. I keep copies.

Modern mobile devices have a lot of built-in memory. However, it is not always enough, since modern games and applications take up a lot of space. Part of the solution to memory problems can be by moving applications to the SD card.
It is worth noting that some applications are not transferred to the Android memory card, if the developer has not included such an option in his product or there is no free space on the memory card. Also, in some budget phones, this feature was initially removed from the firmware.
How to move an application to the SD card in the standard way
First of all, you can try the built-in move ability:
Important! The standard method does not transfer all the data, some of the information will remain in the device's memory.
This is a handy utility that eliminates the need to repeatedly perform stereotyped actions, it provides the ability to perform group control list of applications. 
First start will sort applications that can be moved and will display a list. The required ones are highlighted by pressing and holding. To transfer an application to a memory card, you need to click its icon, at the request of the utility, confirm the transfer. Programs that are already on the SD card and programs in the phone's memory that cannot be moved are displayed in separate tabs. In addition, a warning will be issued if moving the program will reduce its functionality.
Folder Mount
An advanced program that allows you to bind any internal folder to any external, thereby moving applications to the memory card. For FolderMount to work requiresroot rights:
After that, only the image remains in the internal memory, and the folder itself is located on the SD card. 
Folder Mount analyzes the list of applications, their size and finds those that should be transferred to external media first.
Move to SDCard Application
“” “Weighs” mute, moves programs in both directions, sorts them by date, title, size. 
The procedure is simple:
- in the menu on the left, select the item " Move to memory card»;
- mark the application with a bird, click " move»;
- appears process image with a slider from 0 to 100%.
The reverse process is available from the button " Move to internal memory». 
For work are necessaryroot rights and an additional etx partition on the memory card (primary). 
At startup scans the device and displays a list of all programs that are allowed to be saved to the Android memory card. You can select one application, or by pressing the " Multilink»Perform batch transfer. But first you need to create the necessary sections.
Creating a partition using Recovery TWRP
The system recovery menu is intended for installing alternative and factory firmware, updates, applications, synchronization with a computer, full or partial backup, creating and formatting partitions on an SD card. Using TWRP is easy:
The program will ask for consent to install the officially redistributable application. If you don't need it, click " Donotinstall».
After rebooting, go to " Memory"(" Storage ") and check if the storage size available for SD has changed. If everything is done correctly, it will shrink, because the created ext-partition is now visible only for App2SD, Link2SD and other similar managers.
Create a partition with EaseUS Partition Master
In this case, we will work on a computer by connecting the card through a card reader.
Procedure for splitting and creating a 2nd partition on an SD card in EaseUS Partition Master:
In the "Settings" of the device go to " Memory", select " Disable map". Confirm the action in the alert when prompted. 
After launch, it will ask you to confirm superuser rights.

This displays warning... To start the process of splitting the card, you must agree. 
An image of the process will appear first, followed by new sections. 
SD card is connected. Across " Settings" v " Memory»You can see its changed size.
Moving with Link2SD
Now it has become possible with the help of the manager to transfer applications to the Android memory card. To do this, you should:
At the end of the process, launch the transferred application. If it (no matter what the reasons) does not start, it is best to return to the previous placement with the " RemoveLink».
Files To SD Card
A program for transferring applications to a memory card is available in the Play Market. It can be used to quickly change file location even in devices with small built-in memory. Allows you to copy data in both directions. Makes it as easy as possible to free up the internal storage of the device.
After installation, as well as after every restart device, the program needs confirmation of rights and setting up access to an external drive.
All-In-One Toolbox

Using the card as internal memory
This function is not available on all gadgets, but only starting from the Android 6.0 version.
Important! In this case, this SD card cannot be used otherwise. For example, to move it to another device, you need formatting. When you remove the USB stick connected in this way from the device, all information will be deleted from it.
In the Settings select “ Storage"And click" SD card". Find the top right item " Tune", Then go to" Inner memory". A warning about data deletion will appear.

To end the process, you need to click " Transfer now", then " Ready". After the end of the transfer, restart the device.
On our website is posted on the setting of this function.
An error message indicating a lack of space in your smartphone's memory comes at the most unexpected moment. For many owners, this message caused a lot of trouble.
Where does the place go?
Given that many applications are updated automatically, we are not always able to control the amount of memory used. Most of the space is taken up by games, graphics applications, cards. The place is occupied not only by the distribution kit of the game, its program files, but also the databases and other resources stored in the cache. Installing new and new games, applications and programs, you run the risk of facing the problem of lack of space.
How can applications be moved to a memory card?
You can always find a way out. There are several options for how to move applications to the storage card. Android up to 2.2 does not have the function of transferring an application to a memory card. It requires a special approach. Also on "Android" 4.4 "Kit Cat" manufacturers have closed the function of transferring applications for security purposes. In other versions, the instructions are simple.
To transfer, open the settings Find the "Applications" section. On the SD card tab, you will find all applications that support movement. Now you need to select those programs that you really want to move. If an application is flagged, it is currently running and system files cannot be moved. Before moving applications to the memory card, you must disable them. Let's make sure we made the right choice. Click on the name of the program. Information about her will open. The location and amount of space is indicated here. To complete the operation, it remains to click on the "Move to SD card" button and wait for the operation to complete.
The action also reverses. Not all programs are completely portable. A small part of the system files still remains in the phone's memory.
AppMgr3 application
The AppMgr III program is designed to help users. With it, you can easily move applications to and from the CD card. Previously, this program could be found under the name App 2 SD. The utility has additional useful functions. With its help you can:
- Hide the application icon from the general menu.
- Set up notification when the app installation is complete.
- Quickly
Sorting in the program interface is made in the form of convenient tabs. Even a beginner can figure it out. AppMgr is also convenient to use because it automatically divides all applications into three types:
- On phone - are in the phone memory, but the transfer is supported.
- On SD card - already moved to the SD card.
- Phone only - applications that do not support porting.
Thanks to this property, it is easy to estimate the amount of information before moving applications to the memory card. Android also supports other programs that perform a similar task. The utility works great on tablets. The disadvantage is that some smartphone models require the latest operating system firmware. Check before transferring applications to your memory card, android 4.2 (or higher) may already be installed. If not, update your operating system.
Cache Move Application
FolderMount helps to move the application cache to the memory card. The fact is that cached files occupy perhaps the largest place in the memory of a smartphone. When transferred in the usual way, they remain. If you completely delete the cache, you can lose a number of settings and passwords. But there is a way out. The folder with cached files can be moved to the memory card.
FolderMount is easy to use. It works under Root user rights. Run FolderMount to move Cache files. In the "Name" line, select the name of the application. In the line "Source" specify the folder with the cache files, the path will look like this: Android / obb / "your folder with the name of the application" /. In the "Destination" item, specify the folder on the SD card to which the cache needs to be moved. To transfer, click the checkmark icon in the upper right corner. When it turns green, the transfer is complete.
Link2SD App
A simple, colorful application with a user-friendly interface. Useful functions of the program:
- Moves any selected applications to the memory card.
- The application can delete, freeze and unfreeze system and user applications.
- The program is capable of converting system applications to custom ones and vice versa.
- Link2SD can delete data and application cache, sort, search and filter existing programs.
Root rights are required to use. Make sure before moving applications to a memory card - "Android" above version 2.1? It is noteworthy that movement, like the reverse action, is performed by pressing one button. Run the program. Find the app and select it from the list. Go to the App info tab. To move the application to the memory card, click the "Link to SD card" button. To return "Remove Link".
How do I move more apps?
Not all programs can be moved. There is a little trick. It is available for self-confident users. An example would be the HTC smartphone. Try it and see for yourself. Before moving applications to the memory card, install the SDK program on your computer. Then connect your smartphone to it via USB cable.
- Find the adb file in the directory where the SDK is installed and copy its path.
- We go into the command line and write the copied path, adding it with the command: C: \ android-sdk-windows \ platform-tools \ adb shell.
- Press "Enter", after which the $ icon should appear on the next line.
- Again write: pm SetInstallLocation 2, press "Enter".
- If $ appears on the line, then everything is in order.
We close, turn off the phone, go to "Applications". You can see that there are now many more programs available to move.
Moving applications on "Android" version below 2.1
Although the operating system itself does not support the porting action, there is a way to work around this condition. For cash, check if your device already has a special firmware installed. If this is not the case, it is still possible to transfer applications to the memory card. To do this, you need to connect your mobile device to your computer via a USB cable.
The method is available for advanced users. For those who are just starting to master the use of a smartphone, it is better to use the help of a specialist. The rule for all users and all programs, without exception: make backups of your applications! This will help save the data in case of an error.
After connecting the mobile device to the computer, prepare the SD card for transfer. We launch the MiniTool Partition Wizard application, which will help us to partition it into partitions. It is important that there is no relevant information on the map. Copy all data from it to your computer. We are going to delete the already existing sections, and at the same time all the information on them. To be sure, you can format the card. After it becomes clean, we proceed to create the necessary partitions:
- Partition Primary FAT32 - leave more space, because all user data will be stored here.
- Primary ext2 is the section for our applications.
Only now you can move applications. We recommend using the Link2SD utility. Download the program. Reboot after installation. Install by choosing ext2 when prompted. Run the utility and start transferring according to the instructions.
If there are no Root rights?
Some manufacturers install their own firmware. Although you can always find out in the instructions for the device how to move applications to the memory card, most often these smartphones cannot use Root rights. This is done for security, on the one hand, and on the other, to impose paid programs. Let's face it - not everyone thinks this is a fair decision. The question arises: "How to move applications to a memory card without the appropriate system permission?"
Reinstall the operating system completely. Manufacturer settings that cannot be changed will be erased. Download the distribution from the official website. The reinstallation will not cost anything, but it will take a long time. You will need to use a desktop computer. All programs will have to be re-configured. This option is for advanced users.
Bypassing restrictions. How to move applications to a memory card.
Lenovo a516 is a popular budget smartphone. The amount of memory is small - 4 GB. This is with a fairly fast processor and a bright screen. Of course, the owners are tempted to fill the phone's memory with games. The problem is that Lenovo launcher is installed on top of the operating system. In this case, some settings become unavailable. Many point to the impossibility of moving an application to a memory card in one click. Indeed, given its small size, this is a significant drawback. To help the owners of a wonderful smartphone, several ways have been invented on how to move applications to a memory card. Lenovo has put in a good defense, but there is a chance to bypass the restriction.
You can use one of the applications, but they all work under Root rights. Despite this, there is a transfer method. We'll have to attend to the installation of the additional Framaroot application. Download it and place it on your SD card. Install the app. Once launched, you will be presented with a choice of rights. SuperSU and SuperUser rights will have Root access. Select one of the already created users and wait for the notification about the installation of Root rights. Reboot your smartphone. Make sure SuperSu is in the list of apps. If everything worked out, then you can perform previously unavailable actions, for example, move applications to a memory card. Android will allow you to do this.
Today, probably, there is not a single person who would not use the camera of his device. Many smartphones have a camera that is even better than many cameras. However, some users are faced with a lack of internal storage on their smartphones. To fix this problem, there are some tips on how to transfer a photo to.
Before you start moving photos from the internal memory of a portable device to an SD card, you need to make sure that the device sees the external drive. To do this, you need to go to the settings, find the memory item, click on this name.
If everything is in order, then the free and used space on the external drive will be displayed. If MіcroSD is not displayed in some Android devices, there is an item to connect an SD card. There are three types of drives, and they also connect in different ways:
- MіcroSD - inserted directly into a smartphone or tablet;
- SDHC - most often connected using an adapter;
- A USB flash drive is connected to a phone or tablet using a cord.
The second and third options are suitable for those devices that do not have additional connectors. Then you need to buy a special cord for transferring data from your phone to a third-party storage medium. In the case of SDHC, at one end there must be a connector suitable for the device, on the other side an adapter into which the MicroSD will be installed.
When everything is ready - go to the parameters of the tablet and smartphone, go to the cell with the name "my files", find the tab with photos, long press to bring up an additional menu. In the list that opens, click on the move item, then select the MіcroSD option.
Additional applications
After the checks, you should install the file manager, the best options for transferring photos from Android to a third-party storage medium are programs such as ES Explorer or Total Commander. Any of the managers can download it for free from the Play Store. After launching the ES application, a screen appears in front of your eyes, which has two sections. The first section is a flash drive, and the second item is the internal memory of the smartphone.
Since you need to transfer photos from your phone to an external device, go to the second tab. After that, you need to find the name of DCIM, in the list that opens, select "Camera". After the images appear, you need to keep your finger on the picture until the picture is highlighted with a tick. Thus, mark all the pictures.
Press the scissors at the top of the display. When the pictures are cut, you should go to the SD card by clicking on the plus picture to add a folder in which the images will be stored. Next, click on the new tab, at the top of the screen, tap on the picture of two squares, after which the photos are automatically saved in the selected location.
Total Commander is another very handy application that will help you find an answer on how to save photos to third-party media. Having entered the program, a window appears in which all the phone files are located. Find the name DCIM, then - Camera, after that there are two options by ticking the necessary pictures, the root of the folder and ticking the necessary pictures, or select the entire package.
After the desired images are marked, click on the arrow to go to the next window. When the transition is completed, click on MіcroSD, select the desired location to save. Then go to the previous window and click on move files.
Saving a photo to a card
In order not to suffer with the transfer of photos from one place to another, you can enable saving files to an additional medium. How to make sure that the photos are saved in the required place? There are several ways to do this. The first option is very simple, it involves going to the camera parameters:
- first you need to click on the camera;
- select settings in the menu;
- save option;
- check the box to mark the external device.
If there is no such item, it means that the developers of the smartphone have automatically thought out saving to the USB flash drive.
The next item is suitable not only for photographs, but also for all applications. You need to download a program called "Download Manager" in the Play Store. After installation, the main display opens. By clicking on the three vertical stripes a list opens, in it you should click on the name "download", then select the desired path and click OK. When these actions are performed, all files will be saved to the specified location.
Today we will tell you how to transfer files of internal memory, applications to the SD-card of a phone on an Android or tablet. And also how to store files and photos on a microSD card to free up space on your smartphone's memory. All methods are simple and will help to avoid or postpone the moment the message “Not enough space” appears on your Android device.
What you need to know about micro SD cards
Many low-cost Android smartphones have a small amount of internal storage (4GB or 8GB). At the same time, 16 GB is not always enough, because few people limit themselves to a couple of movies and applications. Many users want their gadget to fit as many high-resolution photos and videos as possible, as well as all their favorite music compositions. Fortunately, most Android smartphones support microSD cards.
Before buying a card, you need to find out what is the maximum memory capacity of the gadget. Flagships usually go up to 128 GB and above, but many Android smartphones are limited to 32 GB. Frankly speaking, this amount of memory is enough for most users.
After inserting a microSD card, you can set a new save path for new applications, photos, videos, audio files and others; change the location of saving pictures in the camera settings, as well as songs downloaded from the Google Play Music application. But what about applications that are already loaded on the internal memory of the smartphone?
How to move apps to SD card in Android
Let's make a reservation right away: not all applications can be moved to a microSD card: some applications have protection that will prevent you from doing this. In other words, users of smartphones with 4 and 8 GB of internal memory, who are used to downloading and installing dozens of applications, even with a microSD card, may face the problem of lack of memory.
The ability to move an application to a memory card is usually determined by the application developer and sometimes by the device manufacturer.
For example, one of the smartphones on which you can move applications to the SD card. However, these applications will become unavailable when the memory card is removed.
In order to find out whether it is possible to transfer an application to a microSD card, go to "Settings", then to "Applications" and select the one you need. On some Android smartphones, the settings menu may have a different name and look, but the application settings should be there anyway.
The first tab of the application settings menu displays all downloaded applications on the smartphone. On the tab to the right - those stored on the SD card.
To move the application, go to the Downloaded tab and click on the application. For example, in the screenshots, we have chosen Clash of Clans.
There will be an item "Move to SD-card", click on it. After that, the inscription "Move" will appear, and at the end of the process the item will change to "Move to internal memory". Now the app has appeared in the "on SD card" tab.
It is also worth noting that many downloadable free applications are available for moving. And for those who often do not have enough available memory, we recommend uninstalling applications after use.
How to Move Photos, Videos and Other Files to Android SD Card (Memory Card)
In addition, using a computer or laptop, you can also quickly and easily move photos, videos, audio and other files. To do this, you just need to connect your smartphone to a PC via a USB cable.
Through the computer, you can view the contents of both internal and external memory (will be displayed as two different devices). You can use Android File Transfer to transfer files to Mac OS, which displays the internal storage and the contents of the SD card in separate tabs.
Here, to move files from internal memory to external, you just need to drag them with the mouse to any convenient place, including the memory of the computer itself. The main thing is not to accidentally hijack the system files of the Android operating system.
File Manager
You can also resort to using the file manager. Many Android smartphones have this application installed by default. If you don't have one, you can download the free file manager from Topnet999, but Explorer is the most popular among Android users of ES devices.
At the very top there will be a "Memory" tab - click on it to see all the available types of memory on your smartphone. "Sdcard0" refers to the internal memory of the smartphone, and "sdcard1" refers to the external memory. Let's start by moving the photos.
First open "sdcard0" and go to the DCIM folder, then to Camera. Pictures taken with the smartphone camera are stored here. Click on the three dots at the bottom right and select "Select multiple files". We mark the necessary photos that we want to transfer to the memory card. After that, select "Move", go to the desired folder on the microSD card and click on "Paste".
In this way, you can move audio and other files on your smartphone.
