Play store not letting me download apps

There are still some apps that won't move to my SD unless I root my phone. After downloading the file manager, memory has reached it's limit and I still cannot download apps nor update the current ones and now I don't have youtube D:. I tried deleting unnecessary files from apps I had previously uninstalled that were sucking up memory. Any further suggestions? Do you know if I can make google play or any other app stores download my apps in my SD by default?

I've read that it is possible if I root my phone but I'm not sure if it is a good idea. Oh bummer, I was hoping that would work. I've been looking at a few apps that advertise being able to move apps onto an SD card, but each I've tried requires root. I went digging around in the Google Play settings and I couldn't find an option to set a default place to install apps.

I remember there used to be an option in the Application Settings page to move an app to SD card, but I checked on my phone and it looks like that option was removed a few versions ago. I'm pretty disappointed that they removed the ability to install apps to SD cards.

A lot of recent phones have been shipping with very small internal storage, compared to, say, a 32GB SD card, and once they fill up it there isn't much to do about it. It does look like rooting your phone could solve your problem, but I would recommend against doing so unless you really feel like you know what you're doing.

Most of the documentation I found for rooting the Optmius Hub isn't very complete or user-friendly. I have tried evrything all of you had posted and I still can't download anything!!! I'm ready to stomp on it and go back to a landline!!! Show 20 more comments. Just one comment for those users who, like me, aren't the most technologically savvy.

The first step on my LG was to go to apps, then settings, then general, then apps again. This got me to all of my apps and then I was able to go to Google Play Services. Thanks for the fix!

The solution is to delete apps one by until you are able to download and update applications. This may be time-consuming, but still, it can fix the issue. As any other app, the App Store can be slow at times, or its functions may not work.
