First, you need to be using a phone that is running at least Android "Marshmallow" (or newer) or be able to upgrade to it. Second, you will need the instructions I am including below. And third, you need a phone that has not been restricted by the manufacturer from making this change. Which does happen.


NOTE: If any of the steps are missing on your phone, or they don't work for you, then you have a phone that either has an older Android version or has been restricted by the manufacturer. If that is the case, you will not be able to use this information.


How to turn the "External" SD card into "Internal" storage on "Marshmallow" a.k.a. 6.0.

NOTE: Please be sure you start with a blank SD card. It needs to be blank because when the card is converted to "Internal" storage, it will be formatted (wiped) and encoded (making the cards data only readable by that device).

1. Go to device “Settings”, then select “Storage”.
2. Select your "SD Card", then tap the “three-dot menu“ (top-right), now select “Settings” from in there.
3. Now select “Format as internal”, and then “Erase & Format”.
4. Your SD Card will now be formatted as internal storage.
5. Reboot your phone.

NOTE: If you don't reboot the phone, many things may not work correctly, so make sure you do.


How to turn the "External" SD card into "Internal" storage on "Nougat" a.k.a. 7.0.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Be sure you start with a blank SD card. When the card is converted to "Internal" storage, it will be formatted (wiped) and encoded (making the cards data only readable by that device), so anything on it prior would be gone.

1. Go to "Settings", and then select "Storage & USB".
2. At the bottom of the list you should see the SD card's details, including the option to format it and make it "Internal" storage.
3. Once this is done, reboot the device and you can start running things from the card.

If you don't reboot the phone, some things may not work correctly, so make sure you do the reboot.

Look here I dont know if you know how to read or not. Or your just plainly stupid. First of all ive seen this answer many many times. And Vivo Y53 has a different set up. Theres no "three dot menu" on the sd card storage. 2nd it is indeed android 6.0.1. 3rd ive tried this shit earlier and it doesnt work at all. 4th have you used a vivo y53 before and tried this shit instructions?

The instructions are indeed correct.

As written, if you do not have any of the steps listed (Android 6.0 and newer has it, but some manufacturers remove it) then the device cannot move most apps to the SD card. At least not without rooting the device.

If the dots are missing on your device, then you would need to either get the manufacturer to resolve the issue, or root the device, to have the ability to move apps to the card and run them from there.

Actually theres thing thing in the setting saying "install from phone storage and sd card" but I cant activate it. Because it keeps saying "no certificate file is found" what in the shit is the certificate is this thing asking?

Neither of these involves make the SD card "Internal" storage. Some device also mention making a card "Internal" when installing the card into the phone originally, however it isn't the same and does not allow for running most apps from the card.
