Application data is secure data stored on a partition with many restrictions. Android does not allow you to move your data somewhere, where no such security for your data exists. If it would, malicious apps could easily steal user credentials, debit card info, etc. Therefore, Android does not allow you to move your applications' data.

On your device:
Go to your phone settings → Developer Tools.
If you don't see the developer tools options, go to Settings → About phone and tap on the build number seven times and then you should get the developer tools on your settings menu.
- Turn on USB Debugging from Developer tools.
On your computer:
- Make sure that you have the latest device drivers (I'm assuming you're using Windows OS. This isn't necessary for Linux or iOS).
- Download the adb (Android Device Bridge) tool. It usually comes with the Android SDK, but you can find it here.
- Connect your device to the computer using a USB cable.
Run adb from Command prompt using one of these commands:
adb shell pm set-install-location 0 adb shell pm set-install-location 2 # alternative command
The first command sets your install location for phone memory. The other one sets to external SD Card.
ok you can do it efficient, if you have root permission..
now i assume you know what is rooting.. if not, please don't follow this answer..
there are two ways available, easy but hard way and hard but easy way..
1) easy but hard way, install xposed and download a module name called "XInternalSD", enable it and restart your phone.. now go to that app and check "enable for all user apps" option.. and thats all.. its done.. from now on you can install any app or game, and it will directly installed to your sd card.. no more "insufficent space" warning.. now why this method called Easy but the Hard way? its simple, xposed is a system level hook.. so if you dont know what you are doing, it will brick your device..
2) using link2sd app.. download it from playstore.. and go to options and set "install location" to external.. thats all.. but this method doesnt force all apps to sd.. if an app requires to be installed in internal, it will leave as it is.. optionally you can format your sd card to make an ext partition for installing all apps on sd card.. thats all..
note: these two methods needs root permission..
