memory sd card

[TWERBY]

I have a samsung s5 and just recently purchased a sd card cause im running out of memory
Now when I update some apps its saying "insufficient memory on device" dont understand when I have 28g of free memory on card.
Do I have to move all apps to sd card if so how?

Welcome to Android Central! Although you can move a portion of some apps to the SD card, you can never move the entire app there--some part of it has to stay behind in Internal Storage. So if your Internal Storage is pretty full, you may not be able to install much more, even if you have a mostly empty external SD card.

If you have a lot of photos in the internal memory, I suggest you move them over to the SD card.

I find it extremely hard to believe that you could have gigabytes worth of apps installed. More likely you have a lot of Videos stored on Internal Memory.

Move all of the images/videos to the SD card, or get them off the phone and to a home computer.

I have 5.5 gB of internal storage still available on my phone plus a 64 gB SD card that have 50+ gB of room left on it.

Good points. It would be helpful to see the Settings>Storage screens. http://forums.androidcentral.com/am...ide-how-post-screenshots-android-central.html

Just buy the note 4 it has 32 gigs of internal storage so you'll be able to store the whole app in there instead of just moving partial memory.

agree. running apps that are installed on sd cards are a bit laggy
