because you moved them to the SD card. :p

the card starts up after the OS starts so you will see random glitches and such like what you are expecting from time to time...

with the storage space and ram in this phone, you are not gaining any real benefit.
 
i agree there is no need to move apps to the sd card on the note 10 series IMHO....unless you are already running out of room.

it could also be a bad sd card, maybe try a new card.

This is the 3rd sd card but I'll try to format it

How can I use the sd card to store my music and pics then

The Camera App should detect the SD Card and automatically save any pictures taken too it. As for music, make a Music directory and copy all of your music onto the SD card. Your music app will find it. I have well over 300songs on my SD Card, and the Samsung Music Player had no problem finding them all.
 
Personal data, like photos, videos, music and files, can (and IMO should) be stored on the microSD card. I have little faith in storing my critical data in internal storage, because one really nasty drop may render the phone inoperable... and all that internal storage would be inaccessible, rendering my data gone. But apps and app data? Those are really tied closely to the operating system, and should be left on the phone. With the RAM the Note 10 and Note 10+ have, there should be no reason for trying to keep apps on the card. Use the Google and Samsung Cloud backup options regularly - like weekly - and you will be fine.
