Why does apps on sdcard move to internal storage after they update?

A

AC Question

I've a HTC One m8. I have any app that allows me to, moved to the sdcard.
When an app updates it moves back to internal storage and I have to move it again to sdcard through apps manager.
Its running Android vers 5.0.1 and HTC Sense vers 6.0,

Welcome to Android Central! Probably because apps always have to download and install directly to Internal Storage, after which you can manually move a portion of the app back to the SD card.
