I already asked similar things in the past, but I still don't get it and I am not sure if meanwhile the techinic has changed. I also didn't find any similar answer here, so sorry when I probably ask something already discussed.

I simply want to move a file from my internal sd-card to external sd-card by code. I know I can't just use File.copy, which would be simple, because of write-restrictions since Android 4.4.

What is the approach for doing this? Is there still interaction needed from the user? Is there probably a sample out in the world, how to do this?

kind regards

Yo can not copy & after delete source file? – Mohammad Hossein Gerami Oct 25 '15 at 07:13
The problem is, that I do not have write access to the external sd card . Or do you have without root ? – mcfly soft Oct 25 '15 at 07:21
