The internal phone memory really isn't that much, and I often get close to running out of space. The 2gb internal fills up super quick, so I "move to SD" which actually isn't an SD, but is the rest of the internal storage space. How confusing is that?!

Anyway, I have an actual 16gb external SD card installed. When I tell the phone to "move to SD" it doesn't move apps there, it moves to the second internal storage partition. Is there any way to actually move these apps to the real SD card? Or is this card only meant to store photos, videos, books, etc.?
 
try "App 2 SD".

From my understanding from the FAQ, this won't work on most Samsung products that have the USB storage labeled as SD card and treated as being the first primary SD card and the microSD as secondary storage. Therefore, this app will not work.

It's a limitation unfortuantely and no way of overcoming it. At least I can't think of anything.
