I've just got my first Android phone and I bought a 64GB micro-SD card so I can download videos from apps like Lynda, Coursera and Khan Academy. I've moved my apps to my SD card but when I download the videos in the app itself, it appears they are being saved to the phone memory, not the SD card like I want them to. Is there any way around this?

Here's the fix:

I didn't see the option in the Lynda app for some reason but it's there.

For those who are wondering, open the Lynda app and go Home (top left) > Settings (bottom of menu) > Storage Location > Set to external.

Similarly, in Coursera, go into your home page, tap the profile silhouette on the top left > My downloads > Menu (top right, vertically aligned dots) > Storage Location > Select your SD card.

How can I move in-app downloads (e.g. Coursera videos from Coursera app) onto my SD card without rooting the phone?
