Hi
Was hoping one of the Android gurus out there mmight be able to confirm / help.
My DD has been using my tablet to play some games on and now we've got her her own tablet.
Both tablets are not rooted (and I'm not looking to root if possible).
Q1 - Is it possible to 'move' a game from my tablet to hers (specifically Terraria)
Q2 - How do I do it
TIA.

If she had her own account then just login to google and re-install the apps.
Some games are saved others are only saved on the device.
I play Simpsons tapped out. Started on my phone then added to a tablet. I can resume the game on either device now.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0 -

HiPaid for apps no as its classed as fraud .
Its not fraud in the true sense of the word although under in the DRM world there are obviously different implementation restrictions. In my simplistic world 'moving' the license (for want of a word) from my account to a new account is not fraud merely license management.
Although this is one of the key aspects that DRM is 'outlawing'. The removal of your right, after purchasing and paying the appropriate license fee, to use or re-use as you wish.Personal Responsibility - Sad but True

Some app creators will move apps from one Google account to another. Moving save game data is a lot harder - you might be better seeking specific advice from the app authors or an Android forum
