Help Call Recorder Woes

I installed one of the many similar call recorder apps on my phone. It allowed me to save calls to the SD card, which is a feature I rather liked.

I wanted to try a different call recorder, so I uninstalled the one I had as having more than one of these apps on the phone at the same time is apparently not a good idea. Before uninstalling I backed up the app using Super Backup.

The new call recorder I tried wasn't as good, so I uninstalled it and restored the original one using Super Backup. It worked fine, as before.

After doing this a few times, to try out different call recorder apps each time, the original app refused to restore and I got insufficient storage messages. I also tried reinstalling from the Google Play Store, but that didn't work either.

In the meantime I have tried a few more call recorder apps (they installed fine so storage space not a problem), but now, when I select storage to the external SD card, the apps don't record anything. If I switch to the internal storage they work fine.

Obviously something in my phone has changed as a result of the various call recorder installs/uninstalls, but I can't figure out what it is. I've tried restarting, clearing caches, etc., but nothing so far has helped.

Any ideas?

This is the app (actually one of two) that is giving me problem I described. I got it a while ago on a free promo so it's in my Play Store library as "purchased." when I try to reinstall from there, or from the APK backup, I get the insufficient storage message.

Clearly something changed on my phone between the original install that worked fine and the reinstall that fails. How can I figure out what that is and fix it? I'm wondering if a factory reset will do the trick, but obviously I'd prefer to avoid that if possible as it would require backing up and restoring all kinds of stuff.
 
You've most likely installed alot of apps that have taken up storage space.
If you've already uninstalled them then do a factory reset, backup important stuff first onto an external SD.
Everything you have installed from the play store will re-download for you.
