WPCentral Question

With the release of windows 8.1 we are able to install apps in memory card.
If we want to change the memory card in which apps are installed (to a more GB memory card), does copying all items from old SD card to new one will be fine OR does it affect the installed apps ?

but what if you move the apps back to the phone, but their file size no longer fits in your phone because of other apps installed?

Then I believe you would have to redownload them. IIRC the phone is restricted to only one card. I'm not sure if you can move apps one by one (large ones) by swapping sd cards. Why don't you try it and let us know? =)

The security in the phone would prevent this anyway, the only thing you can do is move to phone then back to SD card. If you don't have space, you will have to make some or just move the ones you need history for (games and such) and just redownload the rest.
