I expect many other users have had similar problem, but I can't trace any responses on a Forum reply.

My phone is a LG G4c (525n) 8Gb on Android V.6. with a 16Gb SD card.

The phone is working perfectly but as we all know, Facebook, Twitter and Facebook Messenger, seems to make App Updates available every 2-3 weeks, let alone Google.

All these downloaded Apps have been saved onto the 16Gb SD card, but every time the phone updates the App, the downloaded updates moves the App from the SD card, back to the main internal memory, (which is only 8Gb so it quickly gets full and so slows Android down). I then have to spend up to 5 minutes physically moving each App, back from internal storage, to the SD card. So very aggravating!

Is there any way or tweak so I can make the Apps stay on the SD card following an update?

Any ideas or advice would be appreciated- thanks. David
 
Welcome to Android Central! No, that's how it has to work when an app is updated. This wouldn't be an issue if you could format the SD card as Internal Storage, but to my knowledge, LG doesn't support that feature.
