Mount an SD Card to your phone. Samsung Galaxy phones have SD card slots in different places depending on the version. Some can be found under the phone's back cover while others have a slot at the top of the device. The Samsung Galaxy S21, S21+, S21 Ultra, S6, Note 10, and Note 20 models do not support SD card storage.
Open the My Files app. This app comes preinstalled on all Samsung Galaxy devices, and the app icon has a yellow background with a folder on it. You can find it in your Apps menu in the Samsung folder.
Tap Internal Storage. It's the first option below the categories box. This contains all files and folders on your phone.
Navigate to the folder that contains the image you want to move. Images may be stored in a few different locations. Images taken with your camera are generally located in the "DCIM" folder. Other images may be in the "Pictures" folder. Images associated with a particular app (i.e. Photoshop Express, Instagram) may be stored in a folder for that app inside the "Pictures" or "DCIM" folder.
Long press on a photo. Pick a photo you want to move and hold your finger on it until your phone vibrates. You'll know the photo is selected by the yellow checkmark to the left of the image.
Tap on any other photos you want to move. Now that you are in selection mode, you can just tap on any other photos you wish to move. Once again, you'll know they're selected by the yellow checkmark. Alternatively, you can long-press an entire folder full of images to select the entire folder.
Tap Move. It's at the bottom of the screen in the lower-left corner. It has an icon that resembles a folder with an arrow pointing right.
Navigate back to the main menu in My Files. Tap the icon that resembles a bracket pointing left either in the upper-left corner or at the bottom of the screen to back out of each folder. Keep navigating back until you return to the Home menu of the My Files app.
Tap SD card. It's the second option below the "Categories" window. It will be right beneath the Internal storage option. Depending on the type of SD card or the Samsung Galaxy model, it might say Memory card instead.
Choose a folder. Scroll through the list of available folders and subfolders until you find the ideal location. Tap the folder you want to move the image(s) to. Alternatively, you can create a folder for these photos. To do so, tap the icon with three dots, in the upper-right corner. Then tap Create Folder. Type a name for the folder and then tap Create. Then tap the folder you just created to open it.
Tap Move Here. It's in the lower-right corner of the screen. This moves the folder you selected to the current location on the SD card.
