Moving Apps to SD Card

[7h3d34f0n3]

As the title states I am trying to move app to the SD Card and I keep getting the message that I can not move any to the SD Card. The issues is stemming from when I am getting updates I am getting a message stating that I do not have enough memory on the device to do any updates. I put in a 256 Gb MicroSD Card and the tablet can see the MicroSD Card. Is there something I am missing to be able to transfer apps and free up space to do updates?

If the developer has compiled the apps for internal storage, you can't do anything about that, sorry

I gave up on moving apps to the SD card. It gave me nothing but issues. Disappearing app icons that turned into generic android symbols, updates failing, low or no memory issues. Just wasn't worth it to me anymore. Seems like more and more Devs are removing that option from their apps now anyway. Best of luck to the OP in this though. Hope you have better luck than I did.

I wouldn't move apps to the SD card , just keep it strictly for pictures, video,documents

Unfortunately, your best option is to try clearing up more space by uninstalling rarely used apps and moving any media files and documents to the SD card.

Apps run from internal storage only these days (Google used to warn us to not move them to the SD card, but no one listened, and people wrote apps to move them, so Google stopped beating their heads against a brick wall). And 64GB of storage is a bit small in 2020. Move everythingexcept your apps to the SD card, clear all app caches and that's about the best you can do. (Next time you buy a tab, buy one with at least twice as much storage as you think you'll need - you'll quickly exceed half of it.)
