Question

Apps not installed on SD card

by Feb 11, 2013 12:05AM PST

I have had this galaxy y for a few months now, but a week or so ago, apps that i download don't get instaled on SD card anymore, instead they are installed in phones memory, and the memory of this phone is very low, 190 MB, so i can not download and install apps anymore.

App that took 1.5 MB of phone memory, now takes 25 MB.

Anyone know what do to to force apps to get installed on SD card?

Thanks in advance.

Here, you let them install them use the move feature.

If the app supports running from card, it's moved later by you using the usual screens.

Well, none of the apps let me move them to SD card. But they did before. That's what's bugging me the most.
