One of the best parts of using a Samsung phone over the years has been using a Micro SD Card to store extra files. Today I show you how you can move everything over to the SD Card including your photos, videos & apps!
Tech With Brett I choose to move my apps to SD card, i saw the loading process but why my apps still takes up internal storage? The free space in both internal and SD card didnt change a bit.
Thanks for this video I’ve been a long time iPhone user and I’m tired and bored of it now and I am definitely switching to galaxy S10+ this week one of the main things is the ability to save my media to and external storage space not a cloud or anything like that, I’ve lost some files or media using iCloud and it sucks having to go find it online and download it again. So thanks again.
They are probably elitist that think they can do it a better way. that or too impatient and wanted the answer in the first 10 secs of the video, then clicked off. Also, they are apple users and are just jealous cause this is easy. lol

Brett, Bravo, thank you. As a college graduate, I have this nasty habit (pun intended) of taking notes when I need to remember something important. This is important stuff! Your delivery is easy to understand, although a bit fast and I have 2 pages of notes. I have no doubt your method (s) will work. Thank you for your time in sharing your knowledge.
Thank you, thank you! I'm here in 2022 with this old phone. You SAVED MY LIFE!! Your directions were super easy, super clear. New subscriber here. Thank you!!!💋💋💋
Thank you so much I spend almost 13 day's to find out how to move picture, video, etc... on my SD card, and now your video it's show me how... I wish I could give this video a thousand like.
@@TechWithBrett this isn't working for me on my s9. Has anything changed with updates? It's just saying move to secure folder? Have you tried this recently?
Thanks Brett. You saved me a ton of frustration. Samsung and Google-Android owe you a nice royalty check for taking the pain out of their user-hostile half-baked system.
You are literally the best, the only person I know on CZcams that offers a full walkthrough on how to use Samsung's great features without calling it a gimmick. I see a lot of apple walkthroughs but not really on Samsung . I have been able to transition from iPhone to samsung almost seamlessly and I'm using the phone to it's full capability. I'm really grateful keep up do Goodwork
Thank you sooo much. Your video is clear and concise and easy to understand!! I have at last moved the photos and videos from my phone over to the SD card. Great work...thank you again!!
Thanks for this! ❤ I am an aspiring vlogger and I just wanted to know how to transfer apps from my S9 internal memory to the Memory Card. Thanks again! 😊
I'm a dinosaur, I keep getting message that phone is out of storage. I was told I could never use up all 128 GB of storage. Some how I managed to accomplish this impossible feat unknowingly 😲 🤷♀️. I YT'd my query & a host of options popped up & I chose you, I'm so glad I did! Now the question I have is this: If I've used up all my 128 GB storage, will I have to purchase a larger GB storage thumbdrive? Man I wish I had you here to guide me through all these steps. You have a wealth of awesome knowledge about smartphones! Will I loose anything for not emptying my phone's internal storage space? I've been getting this message from Google for a while but didn't know what to do. I have no one to help me, my hubby doesn't have or want a smartphone, (he has a flip phone) I finally taught him to answer it, against his will 🤭! Thank you so much for making video's that help us older folks to get some techie knowledge. God bless you 🙌🙏❣
Found it. Brett this video was just what I needed to keep me from pulling my hair out, which would have been tough since I've shaved my head bald 😁, Thank you so much!!!
After wasting my time looking at all the other videos, this is the only one I needed. Thank you so much! If you have apps like Call Recorder, Easy Voice Recorder, or a dating app with conversations on it and those apps are transferred to the external storage, will it erase any of the recorded phone calls, conversations, or dating text in the dating app? Thanks
Thank your for your help out of all the other videos Yours was the most easiest to undersrand. Appreciated. All they needed to say was go into camera settings and change location to sd card to have all yoyr pics videos stored . 48sec 101 secs most useful thanks.
I have a LG Trac Phone and your instructions were helpful even though I had different options to choose from. I figured it out and I'm happy now. I didn't even know I had a slot for an SD card until last week....LOL !!! Thank you :)
Hi bro I just want to say thank you so much for your video this help me so much I never thought I could do this but by your step-by-step guide I managed to do this for the first time in my life may God bless you and your family forever Amen 🙏 I love❤ you
had to try 3 different videos on this subject before I found one that actually had the same options as my phone although ALL the videos was supposedly for my model phone! Thank you Tech with Brett!!!
I'm glad this works so well for most folks. I'm not sure why I'm having no luck... As an example, when I bring up app info and go into storage there is no "change" button. My sd card already has some new video stored on it so I assume it's properly installed and everything. Can anyone shed some light on this for me? Thanks.
I have a Samsung galaxy J7 2018 phone, and this video is super helpful on my model of Samsung phone of how to manage data to my micro SD card in my phone.
@@TechWithBrett it probably won't. Samsung is one of the last to have it, and I think they might drop it all together. Less and less control to the user unfortunately
Thank you! I am still having trouble though, it says my phone is too full to transfer anything and when I go to album I don't have any option to move to sd card. I keep deleting photos and documents but I'm still out of internal storage. The updates the phone does on the operating system is what is eating up my storage. My photos are in the cloud. I hate this phone but I don't want to have to buy a new one because of the operating system.
It's my first time to use an SD card. Do I take it out of the phone when transfer is done? How do I see those photos again? Instruction was great. Thank you.
HI. Even though I can see the SD card under "My Files" when I go to move or copy photos to it it only brings up "Copy Here" option and it's same internal storage i am transferring from. I have formatted card. I am able to store new pictures onto the card. But it's not letting me move/copy pre-existing files to it. Could use your help please.
Thank you for the video, very instructive! I have an issue thought; when I move apps on the SD card to free space on the internal memory, it automatically transfer it back from the SD to the phone after some time, thus making my phone run out of space again and runnning very slowly; is there a way to avoid that? Locking the app on the SD so it doesn't transfer back?
Thank you, just got a Samsung EVO Select 128gb SD card for my Galaxy S9 + FINALLY 😁 and can free up some internal storage. Moving the apps seems pretty straightforward but I'm going to have to refer back to the pictures and internal files part of it when it comes to the DCIM etc, it seems a bit complicated to me in that area.
Very helpful video the process worked on my Samsung phone as well as my LG G5. Thanks for helping me free up quite a bit of space on both of my phones.
Just a tip, if you change your storage to external in the camera app, you can then take a picture and your DCIM\Camera folder will be created automatically. You can then just move your albums into that Camera folder. No need for the My Files app. Helpful video though. Thanks
Brilliant help with SD Card details, thanks Jacinta!!! I really hope you can help me with another problem 🙏. I've been having a massive problem with the Echo on my phone, really ANNOYING my friends and Me, appreciate your help, thanks loads, Jacinta
Thanks Brett! Funny story, my bro got me a 256gb card months ago from amazon but i was too lazy to activate it but since im going on a trip soon i had to activate it lol. Your video helped me move over 5000+ files haha. Happy Holidays!

Tech With Brett Great video! I use my sd card for my photos, too. Nice to see we can also move some apps. 👍
Why is it when photos are moved to sd card there date stored changes is there any way to fix this .
I have not experienced this so not sure how to fix it.
Tech With Brett OK thanks for replying

Who ever disliked this video must have something wrong with them . , cause this video was super helpful . thank you
They probably have a apple phone
Because it only gives option to move to a secure folder. Won't give those as in his video
They are probably elitist that think they can do it a better way. that or too impatient and wanted the answer in the first 10 secs of the video, then clicked off. Also, they are apple users and are just jealous cause this is easy. lol
@@curvydeals5660 yes thats what I find also on my s10

Great video! I'd like to know why do you suggest copying the files to the sd card first then deleting them, rather than just moving it to the sd card?
