I recently bought a Galaxy S4. I have 8 GB internal usable storage and a 32 GB microSD card. My problem is that when i use apps such as Kobo, all the data, like the eBooks are stored in internal memory, thus reducing it. Is there any way to change the save location of the Kobo eBooks to SD card?
 
Hello and welcome to Androidforums.com,I have some info that might help ----->Samsung's answer to the controversy over storage space on the Galaxy S4 has been to resurrect an old Android feature -- the ability to move apps to your SD card. By offloading heavier apps to your expandable storage (the S4 supports microSDXC cards up to 64GB) you're able to save precious internal storage for other stuff, like the many apps that can't be moved to the SD card. That's right, just like in the Froyo (Android 2.2) days, developers have to specifically allow you to move apps to the SD card, and some popular apps don't support the feature.

Nevertheless, if you're big on gaming, the latest mobile titles can take several hundred megabytes each, and the ability to move these apps to the SD card is a great way to save space. The update to allow apps to be moved to the SD card is rolling out now to unlocked German Galaxy S4s, and other regions and carriers should follow in the weeks ahead. I would recommend signing up with http://androidforums.com/ and look for the galaxy s4 forums and you will end up meeting a great group of people that could help out more and you probably learn some more new tricks and tips that you might not know already! hope this helped and hope you become apart of this great forum,good luck !!!!
