i've checked the value in our manifest and it's android:installLocation="auto".

maybe our underlying framework is the cause - Qt.
yet quickly googling about Qt apps that don't work from a SD card i
can't find any results.

"Applications That Should NOT Install on External Storage"

i don't think we fall under that category in terms of our code base.
again, it could be a generic Qt issue.

it's best if you can log an issue in our github if you have an account:
