Moving apps to the SD card

[DiscipleDOC]

Hi,
Can someone point me to the easiest way of moving my large games (1.8GB or more) games to my SD card?

Thanks in advance.

You have to root your note first so you can install an app for this one :highfive:

You need to be rooted and then you can use the app called "Folder Mount" from the play store to transfer any directories you like to the sd card.

Thanks for your responses. I already have my Note 8.0 rooted and ready to go. I will do some research on this folder mount app.:good:

Folder Mount is by far the easiest app to use. Thanks!:good:

Here's a link to the app:

I have installed this app but frankly I do not understand its purpose. If I need to move files and folders, then I can do it with any file manager, no need to have this app installed, unless I'm missing something.
On the other hand, how can I move apks to external sd? I mean when I install an app (apk) it still goes to internal storage. How can I force it to install on sd card (if possible), or at least how can I move it to sd card after it installs internally?

you can't.. moving apps and games to external is imposibble even with apps2sd... the only way to do this is to copy your files from internal to external and mount it to the original internal directory..
that's what foldermount does...atleast thats what I think it does..

This link explains how to use Folder mount, and why you should use it.
