Can Use Apps On Sd Card On A Different Phone

Whether its images, music, or videos we know that the most important stuff on people's phones is stored in the user memory.

The motorola edge 20 fusion allows you to expand your memory by using a micro SD card. Your phone supports an optional microSD card up to 1 TB.

Which type to buy depends on how you're going to format the card:

Portable storage (can use card in different devices): A Class 2, 4 or 6 card is sufficient.
Internal storage (card used only by phone): Use a high-speed card such as UHS-1 type for best performance. Class 2, 4 or 6 cards are slower than your phone's internal storage, so using them for internal storage would slow your phone's performance.

Move photos, videos, music to SD card

To free up internal storage on your phone:

Be sure you've inserted and set up your SD card.
Open the Files app and touch Clean
Or, go to Settings > Storage > Internal shared storage > Free up space
