Often, the owners of smartphones on Android are faced with the fact that the internal memory of the device is clogged under the string, and therefore it is not possible to install a new application. In order to answer the question how to transfer the application to the memory card, we have prepared this material.
Android OC long fans know that since android version 2.2 and up to Android 4.4 existed an application transfer function to a memory card. Some firmware still possess it, and therefore the first thing we recommend to try the next way.
Internal Opportunities Android OC
Go to "Settings" and select the item "Applications". By choosing the software that you plan to transfer, open the window of its settings and select the "Transfer to SD card" in the menu. We remind you that almost all developers guarantee stable work its product only if it is installed on internal drive.
Another option is available from Android 6.0. You can use an SD card as part of the internal storage using the Adoptable Storage feature. The system formats and encrypts a flash drive, which will make it impossible to use the card outside your smartphone.
Activation function ADOPTABLE STORAGE It happens as follows: In the smartphone settings, the "Memory" section is selected, then click on the SD card and go to the "settings" to its "settings", select the item "format as internal memory" and "erase & format".
After completing these actions, you must select the "Use as an internal storage" option, and then restart the smartphone. After that, an additional memory tab will appear in the application menu, with which it can be transferred to the SD card. If these methods are not available in your firmware, and need app It is impossible to transfer, you should contact special applications.
Software
« Move to SDCard"- SAMIA simple programintended to transfer applications. After selecting the "Transfer to Memory Card" in the menu, we find the desired application, click on it and click "Move". Also among the functions of the program you will find the ability to delete applications and manage APK files, that is, install applications from third-party sources.
If you have root rights, using this application, you can clean your smartphone from the pre-installed garbage. The program is free, but if advertising is annoying inside the application, you will have to pay 67 rubles for its disappearance.
APPMGR III
A more advanced tool that allows in addition to banal application transfer also to produce any manipulation with them. The transfer works exactly by the same scheme as in the previous application, so we will stop on its other features. AppMGR III can delete or hide the application, open it page in Google Play., Go to its settings in Android or Clear Cache.
With root rights, you can significantly expand the functionality - delete applications without confirmation, freeze them, and automatically transfer applications to the memory card after installation. Full version Programs that allows you to install the program widget, update the modules are hourly and so on, costs 179 rubles.
Link2sd.
And here is a full-featured manager for advanced users. Immediately make a reservation that the application requires root rights and settings, and therefore for one-time transfer of the application you can use a less labor option.
First you need to create a hidden area on the memory card in the EXT3 / EXT4 file system. The application uses this area as an emulator. internal memory phone You can do this through the Android axis itself via Recovery and with third-party applications For Windows.
In the first case, the route is as follows:
Switch to Recovery mode. Depending on the smartphone, this can be achieved by the following methods:
- simultaneously press the volume and inclusion buttons;
- press the power button, and immediately after the Volume button;
- at the same time, press the volume, inclusion and "home" buttons.
- Once in Recovery, choose the Advanced item and click Partition SD Card.
- Select the EXT3 file system and indicate the size, for example, 1024 megabytes. The size of the paging file is set to zero, it is already present in the system.
- Reboot your smartphone, after rebooting, the memory card must decrease on the size hidden section.
Another way for those who do not want to experiment with Recovery - Creating a section with Easeus Partition. Master. Installing this utility On the home PC, connect the SD card to it.
Having found a necessary drive in the Program in the main window, clicking on its partitions and click "Delete Partion". When we have the only section with the unallocated file system, select the reverse action - "CREATE PARTITION" and as type file System Choose EXT3. Now at our disposal a hidden section appeared.
Work with Link2Sd.
After creating a hidden partition, you should provide the root-right application and restart the smartphone. Transferring an application to the memory card is now in two ways:
Among other functions link2SD should be noted as follows:
- transform into systemic;
- freeze;
- run, reinstall and delete;
- clean the cache;
- erase data;
- create shortcuts on the desktop;
- open the settings page in Android;
- send installation APK file.
All this is available even in free version Applications, but in just 100 rubles you can purchase an extended version that allows you to automatically clean the cache, to transfer external data of various applications, and of course get rid of advertising.
We hope, thanks to this article, you dealt with the question why the data on the flash card does not move and how this problem is solved.
If you read it, then it was interesting to you, so please subscribe to our channel on, well, and for one put like a fighter (thumb up) for working. Thank you!
If you do not have enough free spaceYou can always transfer applications to the memory card. But not everything is as easy as it seems. Manufacturers of some devices are not allowed to transfer applications to the memory card.
There are three ways to transfer applications to an SD card.
- First method- This is the standard transfer of applications through the settings menu.
1) go to "Settings" and select "Application Manager";
2) Click on the desired application;
- Second way Suitable for devices with ROOT rightsmi.
First you need to install with Play Market. attachment Link2sd. (or similar).
1) Open Appendix (when opening it will be necessary allow apply superuser rights;
2) Press the button "Filter" and select "Supports APP2SD" (This is done in order to find out which applications can be transferred to the memory card. Now applications that can not be transferred from the list);
- Third way Need for configuration devices that prohibit standard application transfer to the memory card.
In order to enable the possibility of transferring applications to the SD card, you need to go to the developer parameters and activate the desired function. Attention: All settings in the developer parameters you do at your own risk.
To go to the developer parameters:
1) Enter "Settings" And select the line "About device" (or "On the phone");
2) Find item "Build number" and click on it in a row 5-7 times until the system notifies you that you have become a developer and the section will not appear "Developer Settings";
3) Go to "Developer Settings" and turn on "Allow saving to external drives".
Android OS users eventually face a shortage indoor spaceWhat makes it difficult to download and receive files via Bluetooth, and leads to the impossibility of installing new applications. The reason lies in games and programs for which there are few drives for 8 or 16 GB. Solving problems - Move cache applications on an SD memory card one of two available ways.
System Movement Cash
The first and most accessible novice user way to transfer the cache to the SD card is a system movement. Transfer part of the application, including massive files. To do this, go to the device settings, then the program item. The new window will display a list of all installed applications, Sign in with the fact that it takes a lot of disk space, and locate the "Move on the SD card" button. Pressing it will automatically postpone the cache from the internal drive to the external (if the memory is divided into 2 partitions) or on MicroSD card.
Similar actions are performed using third-party utilities, such as APPMGR III (App 2 SD). It does not require root rights, but a couple will open with them additional features. The principle of operation is no different from the standard, only package actions are available here, the cache is transferred to one click and cleared applications.
At the same time, not all devices support system transfer data. In them internal and external memory represent one whole, and access to the microSD card is blocked. But even if your smartphone or tablet is not deprived of such a function, some applications are not transferred, as the developer did not make it. In addition, after transfer, some games will longer boot due to a slow card. Therefore, take care that the speed of the flash drive was at least 6th grade.
Mounting Kesha folders
Second way - mount folders. Physically, the cache is stored on the MicroSD, and in the memory of the device only the images required for the correct operation. In essence, it's like shortcuts in Windows, files are stored on one local disk, but access to them opens from the other. Actions are performed using the FOLDERMOUNT application (the presence of root rights is required otherwise the program will not work). The mounting process is simple and consists of several steps in which two folders will be contacted.
- Open the application and click on the button in the form of a plus.
- In the window that appears, fill information in three fields:
- "Name" - the name of the mounted folder (optionally accurate).
- "Source" - the path to the folder whose data must be moved.
- "Assignment" - the path to the MicroSD folder, where I will be stored by the transferred data.
- I confirm the choice and agree with the warning of file transfer, waiting for the completion of the operation.
- Activate the mount by pressing the pin button. After that, both folders are connected with each other.
Note, file managers inform about identical files In the folders you are connected. In fact, the information is contained only on microSD, and in the internal memory of the image. To delete the application, the cache of which was transferred to the memory card, first, unmount the folder. To do this, click on the pin-related pair, then long press, after which the basket label appears. Data will go to the original directory and will be deleted.
The FOLDERMOUNT version is limited in comparison with Pro, and offers 3 mount points. But even this is enough to free the place from the most difficult applications.

If the smartphone notifies the insufficient number of free space, additional map Memory will not always be able to solve this problem. This article will describe in detail the question of how to easily copy files from Android to the memory card. You should distinguish between the internal and memory provided by the flash card. These are different storage facilities and each of them requires appropriate work.
At the beginning, you should learn how to copy documents and files from internal memory to the SD card.
Initial steps to copy
For this manipulation, you will need to go to any existing conductor, if the smartphone does not have a built-in program for these purposes, then better decision Is ES Explorer. They are in open access is free. An example of how to copy files from Android to the memory card will be disassembled on.- It should be noted that SD CARD is a memory in the device itself. This happens if the device's memory is divided into departments for applications and systemic.
- External SD is the flash card itself, which is inserted into a special smartphone slot.
With all the above devices, you can quickly and simply carry out manipulation of copying, transferring and removing the material.
In total, this operation is no different from how it is carried out on the usual computer.
Stages of execution
For lovers to play (work with cache)
Many users know that all downloaded download utilities are installed on the internal drive of the smartphone. And it happens that the downloaded game can take all the place in memory, which will not allow you to additionally download any application. Similar games carry additional cache (the main folder with boot files) And most often this folder takes a lot of space. Knowing how easy it is to copy files from Android to a memory card, you can copy the cache on the flash card, the game will remain capable, and there will be much space on the smartphone.Instruction
On the example of the game "Shadow Fight 2".- Go to the SD drive and highlight the Android folder.
- The entire cache game is stored in catalogs with the name Data and OBB..
- Cut the "Shadow Fight 2" directory from the section called SD CARD./ AndrionD. / Dataand transfer this content to the title section External SD. / Andropd. / Data.
- Exactly the same manipulation exposed Shadow Fight 2 folders from the section SD CARD. / Android / OBB.which also need to be transferred to External SD. / AndRoid. / OBB..
One of the main advantages of the ES Explorer application is shown all the application icons and games in the section that is responsible for their work.
Saving photos
Wanting that the pictures from the camera are automatically saved on the SD card, it can be adjusted through the camera settings:- Go to shooting mode.
- Go to "Camera Settings".
- Select the "Memory" section.
- Put the mark on the SD card saving mode so that all the pictures taken are saved in this section.
Probably, each of us came across the problem of a lack of memory or simply wanted to transfer applications to a USB flash drive, since the memory has already been completed, and games and applications cannot be transferred to MicroSD and annoyed notification "not enough memory on the device, some functions can be limited."
Even if you delete many applications and games, still lacked memory. But how to increase memory without loss? Further in this article we will look at and find out how to solve this problem.
Immediately I want to warn you that neither I nor the site administration is not responsible for your actions. You do everything at your own risk.
P.S The article uses the most simplified words for better perception.
To continue you will need:
- MicroSD card with a class not lower than 6 (preferably 10 class) and more than 4 GB
- (To create a second section)
- (To transfer applications and games)
- (To transfer games with cache)
To enlarge the memory, we will have to transfer your applications to the so-called second section of the MicroSD card (for transfer needed), and we will create it yourself. If you already have a second partition on your card, you can skip this item.
Creating a second section MicroSD
1. Save all files on another media (for example on a computer)2. Disconnect the MicroSD map over the "Settings / Memory / Disable Memory Card"
3. If there is root rights, install, if not -
4. After starting, press "+" twice 
5. Select in Part 2 "EXT4". If you have a device on Android 2.2-2.3, select "EXT 3" 
6. In Part 2, select Size how much you want to highlight the memory in MB from the card for applications and games (the more the better) 
7. Look at the first schedule with a white stripe, with the number of the remaining memory and enter these numbers in Part 1 
8. Check if you did everything right. If everything is correct, press the menu button or on the so-called "three points in the corner", and click on "Apply Changes" 
All, the most difficult already behind, you can again connect the memory card (settings / memory / connect the memory card), to transfer files to the USB flash drive, but before that you can notice that the size of the memory card has decreased. So it should be, because we created the second section.
Setting the transfer to the second section
We need to install the program (Google Play)
After installation, open the application. You must have such a window. Select "EXT 4" or "EXT 3" for Android 2.2-2.3 and click on "OK".
After rebooting, open the application. You must have a list of applications.
Now we will look at what can be transferred, and what is better not to transfer.
So to speak, system applications In no case to transfer. You never know what happens. Therefore, to transfer better user applications (those you installed ourselves. I do not advise you to transfer those applications that you actively use (for example, a browser or there WhatsApp and the like).
And in order to be more convenient, the application has sorting. To do this, click on the "smooth three strips" and select "Custom".
You must appear a list of your applications. Now you can select those applications that you want to move to the second section and send them there. Click on "Three Points", then on "Multiple", select the transfer applications and click on "Slight".
A few minutes of waiting and ready! You have more memory, and you can still download games and applications and transfer them. If you dig in the Link2SD settings, you can turn on the auto link. This is a function that automatically transfers the application to the second section of the card, thereby facilitating your life.
Also in the settings you can change themes, buy a version and so on. But now is not about it. In general, we dealt with the main problem. But I want to tell you, Link2SD does not tolerate cache games (cache games are files of format.obb on the path of Android / OBB / "name of the game package"). So what should we do? Talk further.
Transfer of Cache and Data Cache on MicroSD Card
Cache games can be transferred with an excellent program called. Immediately I will say that the cache is transferred to the flash drive itself, and not on the second section.
Open the application, and swipe from the left edge of the screen to the right edge (swipe) and click on the "Analyzer applications"
