How do I download apps to the Galaxy 4 Tab 8 GB?

[mgeorge2008]

I got this tablet for my son who uses it primarily to play games. I added a 16GB memory card to expand his memory and some of his apps automatically moved to the SD card. The SD card is no where near capacity, yet he cannot download anymore apps because of a lack of storage. Is there a way for him to get the games he wants and actually enjoy his tablet, or did I waste $200.00 on this thing?

Welcome to the forums. Apps are always installed to the internal storage, even though some of the data can be moved to the Sd card. Also the size of the OS is something to remember. About 4 GB is what Android takes, so that leaves you with about 4GB left. What kind of games does he want?

Some of the apps can be moved to the SD card. Open the settings & look for the Application Manager. When you select an app there it may have an option to move it to the SD card. Just 2 things to keep in mind though.... first, not all apps can be moved. Second, if an app has a widget & you move it to the SD card then the widget will NOT work.
