device :realme C25S, yoo, i was about to move my apps on my sd card but sadly there's no option of moving my apps on my sd card even tho there's sd card in my phone i don't know what to do can you people gimme some heads up how to force fully move my apps on my sd card?
 
You have to format the card as internal. But keep in mind that by doing this, you will make the card so that it can't be removed. It will now be one part of the phone.
Im sorry what? Can you be more specific and put it all together in details
 
To move apps to the SD, you need to do something like this:
  1. Insert an SD card into your device. ...
  2. Open Settings > Storage Settings.
  3. Select your SD card. ...
  4. Tap the menu icon (three dots) in the upper right corner.
  5. Tap Storage settings.
  6. Tap Format as internal.
  7. Tap FORMAT SD CARD.
  8. Tap Move content.
Bare in mind, not all devices support using SDs as internal storage and moving apps to them, and I don't know your device so I can't say if it does or not.. Also if you do this, the SD can't be removed, and nor can it be read by a computer or other Android device, unless reformatted. Another thing, with apps running from the SD, it can cause increased wear of the SD

^^^^^^this^^^^^^
 
Just remember that both methods require that the manufacturer implements them, and some phones have neither. If you do not have either option in your settings there's nothing else to do.
