S8+ icons grayed out showing "SD:

[Uihawk9868]

Hello everyone. I just joined the community and, of course, am seeking help. I have a Galaxy S8+ that I bought new about 4-6 months ago. I am running Android 8.0, Samsung exp erience 9.0. My question is that I have installed App Manager III and when I swipe up on the home screen to see the app icons I have installed, some icons are gray in color with a small symbol reading "SD" attached to that icon. This shows up on several icons as well as the main App Manager icon. I can tap on the icon and it still opens the app. I am guessing that it means that that particular app is not supposed to be moved to the SD card ? I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling each effected app and have done factory resets with no success. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

This would probably be a question for that app's support. But if I would guess I would say that it means your sd card isn't working properly.

Those apps are partially on SD card, that's why that app manager labels them.
Or else it's a Samsung way of letting you know that if you pull that SD card, those apps will give problems.
