Set SDcard as default storage on Samsung A20? Samsung A20 storage space running out? Samsung A20 SD card slot? How can I use my SD card as internal storage on Samsung A20? Samsung A20 SD card as internal storage?
Well, the Samsung Galaxy A20 is not a big phone that packs huge inbuilt storage. The handset is a mid-range device that is powered by Android 9 and it has just 32GB inbuilt memory. So if your Samsung A20 memory is running out, you can easily switch to an external SDcard.
In this post, we will be showing you how to use your memory card as your default SDcard on your Samsung A20 device. This is to say, any files you downloaded will be on the SDcard instead of your internal memory. Yes, this is possible and below is how to do that.
Insert SDCard into Your Samsung A20 Slot
The first thing you need to do is to get an SDcard. You can insert up to 128GB of memory cards on your Samsung A20 device.
Step 1: At the top of your device, insert the SIM removal tool into the hole on the SIM card/memory card tray, and then push until the tray pops out.
Step 2: You can now place the SD card on the tray. Make sure that the gold contacts face down and the card is placed properly.
How to Make SDcard As Your Default Settings in Samsung A20
Step 1: Go to Setting > Storage > And click” Format as internal memory “.
Step 2: Now you will have the choice to transfer all your data (excluding applications) to the SD card of your Samsung A20.
Step 3: Done. Now any application or files you downloaded will be saved to the external memory of your Samsung A20.
Step 4: To reverse the Setting that is to make your internal storage your default Settings, go back to Storage Settings > and click on Set internal memory as default memory.

My A20 has no ( storage) listed separately but is included in Device care . When I go to Device Care>Storage there is no option to change the storage, it just gives the option to delete.... Nothing I have found in A20 shows how to set to save to my memory card. ???

Remove the SDcard and insert it again on your Samsung A20, on your phone, and then you should see a notification appear on your phone. Tap on the Set SDcard notification and follow the screen instruction and set it as default SDcard storage.

In your post about using the sd card as internal memory, it was stated that everything could be transferred excluding applications. Then later it was stated that apps could be downloaded on the card . Do all apps have to be redownloaded on the card or just transferred to it ?

Yes. You can transfer files but not applications and you can also download apps on the memory card after you have changed your main storage to Sdcard via the storage phone settings.
