Does moving apps to SD Card mean app data backed up? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

So, I'm wondering...I have moved a lot of my apps from my Internal Storage to the SD Card. I'm wondering if by doing this, when I just put that SD card into another S7 Edge and install the app, the app will be work just like it was in my S7 Edge with all tha data it had originally?
Thanks in advance for any patient response and sorry if I may hurt some susceptibilities by asking a probably nooby kind of question.

moving folders on sc card a good idea?

i move all apps that i can to my sc card... but bc of this, i have a lot of folders. way too many on my sd card. i want to organize them and move them around. is it a good idea to do so? would it affect the way some apps work if i do?
Folders being created on your sd card isn't due to installing apps onto the sd card. It's the directory defined by the app and if removed, will most likely be generated again.
oh! i see! sorry, obviously i am not that familiar with this whole thing haha thanks for replying tho!

Having issues with apps on sd card

This is the 2nd time this week this has happened. Turned my phone on this morning, shows preparing sd card but yet none of the apps I have moved to the sd card will work. They don't show on the app drawer either. The first time it happened I figured it was a fluke so I copied everything from the sd card I was using to another card, and same thing...apps don't show.
So then I reformat the card, reflash the stock image and everything was fine until today. Wtf could be causing this? I am able to access the card thru root explorer no problem. Running rooted stock rom

Just a quick question but have you used up the internal memory in order to move them to the SD card? Apps run slower from the SD card then they do from the phone. I have tons of apps but coming nowhere remotely close to have to move them to the SD card.

nope i always just moved any app that could be moved to the sd card. i swapped out the sd card and wiped the phone, so we'll see how this goes. thanks for replying

Marshmallow and SD cards

It's going to interesting when we get Marshmallow and the option for internal memory to be extended by the (normally slower) SD card. How does this work - anyone using Marshmallow on another phone?
Does storage in the SD card act as an 'overflow' for internal memory? When content/apps end up there, it presumably can slow down access to the apps/content?
What happens if the SD card is removed and some (or even some part?!) of an app happens to reside of the SD card? Does it crash the phone?
This might explain it a bit
Thanks. The bit I (still) don't understand, then, is how you determine where apps, app data, and user data wind up in future.
So I install an SD card as internal memory extension... install a new app... when the app wind up? Where does its data wind up?
You don't determine anything, the choice is taken out of your hands and everything goes on to what is now the internal storage.
Yea

S5 (G900i) SD Card as Internal Storage Access

Hi folks,
I'm guessing it's just my understanding on how this works, but if someone wouldn't mind explaining to me, that would be tops.
So we've got my old S5 with 16gig Internal and a 64gig SD Card, formatted as Internal.
Currently running LineageOS (Android 10; kltedv QQ3A).
Data is definitely being stored on the SD Card and what apps can be installed there, are. However, we've got TitaniumBackup still backing up to the actual, real Internal Storage and that is chewing up heaps of space and as far as the S5 is concerned, we're all but out of room!
How do I either move the TB folder to the SD Card or create a folder on the SD Card so that I can tell TB to use it instead ??
I've got root, but for whatever reason, it's just not computing with me how to sort this mess out.
Thanks for your time - Kind regards,
Dodgy Bob
