    Hello!

    I have tried the method using Android's adb setting the install directory to external(2) to move my apps to SD card to save memory because my phone is full but this method didn't work. My android version is 4.1.2. Is there any other metod? I would appreciate it if you could help me.

    If they're not movable it's because the developer knows that they won't run from the SD card. You'd have to rewrite the vold.fstab file to mount the SD card as main storage. (That would mean a few years of Linux experience at the system level.)

    The apps that I want to move come with the phone - Chrome, Facebook and YouTube. Is there truly no other way around this?

    Root your mobile and use Titanium Backup or Link2SD.

    Whether the phone is rooted or not, an app that won't run from the card won't run from the card. It depends on how the app was written, not whether the phone is rooted.
