Move apps from phone memory to SD card

Hi, My phone is an htc desire 310 and would like to move my apps to the sd card - how do I do this? If this cannot be done how do I increase phone memory?


Mike.

    use an app manager#

    You will find that only a few apps will move across

    To get memory back move photos files to Sd card

    Delete any apps you are not using


    Clear cache in storage


    Apps Manager I use

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.a0soft.gphone.app2sd

    As the phone has only 4GB internal its not enough to run a modern phone, its useless

    Consider changing the phone, you need at least 16GB nowadays to run a lot of apps


    Have a read here with this petulant poster having this very same problem but would not take advice;

    Thank you for your reply. I now see the need to replace the phone. Does my phone have any value? how do I upgrade/part exchange?


    Just installed AppMgr3 but apps cannot be moved to sd card as htc have disabled this function Mmmm!!!

    its unlikely to have much value if any?

    Make sure you get at least 16GB (on board memory)phone to replace, consider a Motorola Moto G4 or similar

    Tesco mobile has them around £14.50 a month
