    Where are the SD Card Apps stored?

    Hi,

    I'm just wondering, when I move an app from internal storage to the SD Card, where specifically do they live? I've tried searching by app name, but I'm coming up empty.

    Thanks,
    R

    I believe they get stored in
    sdcard/android/data
    but don't quote me on that

    I found it on another forum. It's actually in a folder on the sdcard called .android_secure and I believe you'd have to use the adb shell from the android sdk to access/see it. Regular file browsers won't show them.

    Astro File Manager shows .android_secure with no problem whatsoever.

    Yep it shows the .android_secure directory but (at least on my ROM) NOT the apps in it. Just shows as "(Directory is empty)"
    That's what I was referring to about file browsers not showing.

    I see something similar to what Casbah sees. I have the .android_secure directory but it's reported as empty in Astro explorer.
