How To Install Apps Onto Your SD Card (No Root) Android phone

Step 1: Getting Ready to Change Installation Location

 

1. Get the Google Android SDK
     - Unzip the file and place the folder onto your desktop or anywhere that can be easily accessed.
     - find the platform tools folder (default, it should be : adt-bundle/sdk)

2. Find cmd/terminal (for mac)
     - (for mac users) go to [System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts > Services]
        and then check the box [New Terminal At Folder]

3. Go onto your Android phone and select USB debugging
     - Go to [System settings > Developer Options] and select USB Debugging (if the option is grayed out, unplug your phone first)


Step 2: Using adb

 

1. Windows
    - Open the folder called " platform-tools"
    - shift+right-click anywhere inside the folder and choose [Open Command Window Here]
   
    Mac
   - right-click the folder called "platform-tools" and choose [New Terminal At Folder]

2. Enter in the following

For Windows :
       adb devices
       adb shell pm set-install-location 2
       adb shell pm get-install-location


For Mac : (note - there is a period before the slashes)
       ./adb devices
       ./adb shell pm set-install-location 2
       ./adb shell pm get-install-location


3. Check if you did it right
   - if you did it right, the last output should say: 2 [external]

If you did it right, CONGRATS! 

Your phone will now install your apps to your SD Card by default! 

Have fun now!
