Easy ways to configure SD CARD as default Internal Storage on Android 6.0 smartphones

How to Use SD Card as Default Internal Android Storage on Android 6.0


You are running out of space… insufficient memory is a message you’ll always see on Android smartphones. Some Android 6.0 users are already complaining of insufficient memory despite the facts that you have enough space in your memory card.

Let me show you how to make default your SD card as your storage memory on Android 6.0 devices. Meaning, every application you’ll download, file etc will be stored directly on your SDcard and not phone memory.

Requirements
1. Make sure you use original SD card or else it will not last long on the device
2. If you are using old Micro SD card, back up all your files and document



Note that this tutorial is not the same step with Android version lower than 6.0.
