Are you trying to run the actual app from your SD card, or relocate your LaunchBox folder to it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tallpr24 Posted March 13, 2023 Author Share Posted March 13, 2023 either, the galaxy s9 only has 64 gb of internal storage, it quicly filled up after downloading all the video snaps. i was hoping i could launbox from the sd card, but i read in another post that its not possible with android 10 and above.

tallpr24 Posted March 13, 2023 Author Share Posted March 13, 2023 it would be nice if there was an option in launchbox to at least point to the sd card for media like the way retroarch does. retro arach allows you to store the bezels/overlays in a different section like an sd card Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are probably some broken devices that don't allow this properly, but they should be few and far between. You can change the folder by going to Options > Data Folder, and follow the instructions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a Samsung Galaxy S10+ and a Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra. Both are running later versions of Android though than Android 10. Unfortunately I don't currently have anything running Android 10 to test with, but I also don't know why it shouldn't be working, because we used to test on Android 10 without issues. But I guess all I can figure for the moment is that maybe there's an issue with Android 10 or with that device. Sorry I don't have better news.
