Related to application saving location

kilee — Tue, 22 Nov 2016 09:33:50 GMT

I have trasnfered several apps to SD card from internal memory.

But if I update the apps in the Google Play, they return back to internal memory.

For example,

1. I have moved Instagram app to SD card.

2. Google play notify me there is an update.

3. I made the update.

4. Instagram app is located in internal memory, not in SD card.

5. I have to transfer the Instagram app to SD card again.

Is this a normal operation??

Yes.
Google play will always update apps internally in order to verify any paid licences in the drm partion

That is how it works, it has been asked before. There is a good explanation from Rickard here:
