Help Will Apps2sd still work with ICS?

Today I got ics on My a200 tablet and it does not support apps2sd. With that in mind the internal memory on the 3vo is not that of my tablet so most apps go my sd card. What besides the running performance of ics would be the incentive to having ics on my phone? Does anyone know if the apps2sd feature will still be available on our phones? If not there is no good reason for me to update when it comes out.
 
I would bet it will be available, too many peeps use Apps2SD
 
Which Apps2SD app are you referring to?

I'm running the CM9 Alpha ROM (CM9 = ICS) and I downloaded the first App2SD app I found. It was an orange icon by "Gregory House" (wonder if he also goes by 'Doctor'). I downloaded it, installed it, and it showed me all of my downloaded apps. I clicked on one, and it took me to the App Management page. I pushed "Move to SD Card" and it worked.

If that's not the app you're looking for or doesn't answer your question, let me know which app you wish me to try. Linking it in the Android Market (http://market.android.com) would be most helpful.
 
I was not talking about a specific app it was just in general. Like going to settings then apps then just pick any app it says move to sd. That option is not on my acer tablet before or after ics. Thus I was worried that when ics comes to my phone that option would be gone. I don't root and probably never will. Without that option on my phone is could not have half the apps in have now.

Tablets don't have the feature because they have a different SD card structure. Your phone will have Apps2SD :)
 
Hi - have done the upgrade to ics but can not xfer applications to SD card. Can see the card and can xfer stuff from USB device but no cigar for xfering applics. Have tried multiple different applics without success. SD card has directories so I know it installed OK. Almost like this capability is not supported. It is not an option offered in the settings / applications detail screen. Anyone have a suggestion?

Curious...why do you need A2SD on this phone.
TONS of storage space.
Was a necessary evil for older phones ie htc Hero.
But evo 3d should be fine....
