  • I doubt it.

    However if you sign in on your new phone using the same account as your old phone your purchased apps will be redownloadable without further payment.

    Also depending on your android version if above 4 i thought that they stopped the facility to allow transfer to SD card, also most times even on a rooted phone when you transfer to SD it is the internal SD card of the phone not your removable one.

    Be interested to hear other views on this assumption?

    Good luck
