"Hi, my internal storage is running out of memory, so I have bought an SD card, but it doesn't seem like I can move any app to SD! I tried to do it with two methods - first through Settings > Apps > App name > Storage, but no option to move there. And, also with the second method, which is AppMgr III - every time I'm trying to move the app, I got the error at Step 2. I have enabled the developer's options, but still, nothing is there. Any ideas on how to move apps to SD card on Huawei P10 Lite?"
