Hi, how do you move downloaded apps to an external SD card. I installed a 32GB card and cannot find a way to move apps to it like i did on my s2.
 
AFAIK, ICS does not support moving the actual apk (the app) to the SD card.

HOWEVER, you still can save the app data on the SD. In other words, while you are forced to keep the ~50 MB apk file on the phone's internal storage for a large game like NOVA 3, when you first open the game and it asks you to download all the playable app data, THAT can still be saved on the SD so that you don't clog up your phone's internal memory.
 
So much for being able to do anything with Android.

Not all apps support it. But try an app called apps2sd.. I tried it on my Galaxy Tab 2, but it didn't work.
 
If ICS sandwich does not allow moving apps to the SD how did my HTC one S and my son's Sensation have this feature?
