Note 3 App Size is this normal?

[Spencer1990]

Hi there I have installed some apps on my note 3 and it's showing large apps as small size in application manager but shows installed on SD card when I don't have one. Can you please look at picture and tell me if this is normal. Thanks

It's saying the main app is 40mb... and there is 1.29GB of supporting data. Then it gives you the option to move that supporting data to the SD card.

But I don't have a SD card installed. And how come it doesn't show the correct size in application manager if you sort by size. Thanks

Yes. The app is telling you that if you move all possible data to the SD card it would take up 1.25gb of card space. As you can see, right now you have none on the SD card all is on the internal. The internal will keep 40mb.

Okay I understand that but just how come when the app is really like 1.2gb it only shows 40mb when you sort by size in application manager. Sorry it's just kind of confusing because on my old Note 2 it showed the correct size in application manager. Thanks

Also if possible if someone could upload a screen shot of there note 3 showing application manager sort by size that would be great. Thanks

The app itself, downloaded from Playstore is 40mb. The 1.2gb is technically app data from third party if I'm not mistaken. It's probably indexed differently and stored separately. As for the sdcard with no sdcard, I bet it just defaults as that. I know on my s4 it had sdcard0 which was internal memory and sdcard1 which was the external listed in the file manager I used. I'm guessing a little here as I have a sdcard installed already.
