Installing on the external storage is ideal for large applications, especially games, since they are not tightly integrated with the system. Making the gaming files movable to the SD card increases the performance of the device, and also maximizes the number of games or apps that can be installed in the phone memory of the device. Otherwise, not allowing this feature means users may be forced to delete pre-installed games or games already paid for, in order to free up space.
To make an application install directly to the SD card, use the attribute android:installLocation=”preferExternal” in order to make your application install to the SD Card by default.
android:installLocation=”preferExternal”
