Editor Cellular/Mobile Technology
I’m a fortunate man in being able to do the fun job of following and reporting on one of the most exciting industries in the world today. In my time covering consumer tech, I’ve written for a number of publications, including the Globe and Mail, Yahoo! Canada, CBC.ca, Canoe, Digital Trends, MobileSyrup, G4 Tech, PC World, Faze and AppStorm. I’ve also appeared on TV as a tech expert for Global, CTV and the Shopping Channel.
Move Apps to SD (with reservation).
Upgrade to Nougat (Android 7.0).
Go to Storage. Tap Internal Storage. Tap Apps. Recommend Sort by Size. Wait for list to populate.
Tap an App, and if it mentions that it is internal storage, tap and see if it can be moved to SD card.
I moved a number of apps this way, reclaiming internal storage.
Not all apps will move – supplied LG and Google Apps, for the most part, don’t move.
Many of my Google Store, Amazon Apps did however, especially the majority of the largest ones.
I’m not sure why some don’t move – suspect due to developer adding the additional programming.
For example Terraria doesn’t move. That 200+megs taking up internal capacity.
Sorcery! series (all 1gigs in total) does move, which is nice.
