About Force2SD lite [root]
This app needs a rooted device. Use at your own risk.
The lite version only lets you move five applications to SD.
Save precious application storage! Force2SD lets you force most apps to move to SD card/external storage even when the system would not allow you to move them, thereby saving space in the app storage area. While Android as of version 2.2 introduced the feature that lets you move apps to SD card/external storage, it normally only allows the movement of applications explicitly marked by the developer as movable. Force2SD moves many applications not marked as movable.
You can also move applications back, and sort alphabetically or by apk size.
By default (you can turn this off) Force2SD will also scan for orphan app files on your SD card when starting. (Not yet working on Lollipop.) Sometimes, the system fails to delete the app file on the SD card when the app is uninstalled. If any orphan files are found, you will be asked if you want to delete them. This may help with some reboot issues. (This feature will continue to work even if you do not upgrade to the full version.)
Note 1: Applications moved to SD card / external storage will not get an on-boot signal when the device is booted up. So, do not move applications that need to perform some operations on boot. Of course, you should always be able to move these applications back if you're having problems.
As a bonus, if you don't want an application starting up on boot, you can use Force2SD to move it.
Note 2: After a reboot, it make take a while (even a couple of minutes) for the OS to show up the icons of apps that have been moved. That is normal--that's how the OS's apps-on-SD feature works.
Note 3: Some protected apps cannot move.
Note 4: Please email the developer before leaving negative feedback if it doesn't work--it may be possible to fix things.

Does not "Force to Sd". Even with a rooted device you can find apps that do what this one does without a rooted device.. 0* if I could

I have 3 partition for samsung galaxy ace 2 which ia confusing. Usually the app will be moved to usb storage (2nd partition 1gb) by default. But with this, the app moved to my ext sd card (3rd partition 16gb)

For low internal memory devices export all your app to the external SD memory and use your device like a high end mobile

Just a note: do not move apps that require a log in (Spotify, Facebook, etc) be a use you will need to log in everytime after you restart your phone, or every time you open the app.

It only allows you 5 moves (expires) then you have to purchase it, people have to use an app for AWHILE before they BUY an app. So stupid. Greedy, impatient punk...

The only thing I would ask for is an option to exclude some apps to another list, that way I don't accidentally move apps that don't work on an external SD card. Other than that, this app is amazing!
