Hello,
My internal memory space is small, but I have a 32GB external memory. I want to download applications from Google Play, but it's impossible. I would like to know how to download the applications and send them directly to the card.
Configuration: Android / Chrome 74.0.3729.157

Hello Beaulivant,
I invite you in the future to detail your problems more because the richer your post is in information, the easier it will be for us to answer you, do you understand?
To install applications on the SD card instead of the phone's internal memory, it's quite simple. However, you need to check if the smartphone offers this possibility. A search on the Internet or with a seller will let you know if you can take advantage of it on your smartphone. Nonetheless, the trick seems to be available from Android version 5.0, also known as Lollipop.
The steps to follow:
– Go to “settings”
– Then “application manager”
– Look for the application to transfer and click on it
– Click on “storage”
– Change the used storage space to SD card
– Wait for the formatting to finish
Beyond installing applications, using an external memory card is a good idea to increase a phone's backup capacity. You can also arrange for the SD card to be considered, by default, as the phone's internal memory. That way, files will be directly saved onto it.
It is still important to specify that this method only works for versions prior to Android 6.0. For more recent versions, it is possible to directly configure the smartphone so that all applications are installed directly on the microSD card.
To do this, go to settings, storage option, then storage settings. It should indicate which storage space the installations are happening on and it should also be possible to check the “on the microSD card” option.
I hope I've helped you as best as I can.
I also thank the site "geeko" for their additional information.
Have a great day!

That didn't help me at all.
