Changing Samsung photo storage location

When using a Samsung phone with an SD card installed, operating system software updates tend to mess with our settings. There have been a number of times when I have had to reset my storage location for photos and videos back from device storage to SD Card. Again.

The trouble is that the updates that cause all the pain tend to be quite far apart. In between, I forget how to make the changes. I keep going to look for the storage location in the phone's application manager, and not in the Camera app settings. The best way for me is to then write a blog post, where all I have to do when the same-old, same-old happens again is it to look it up on my blog.

So, to change the default storage location for the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 camera, simply:

1. Start the Camera app
2. Tap Settings (the gear icon)
3. Tap Menu (...)
4. Tap Storage Location
5. Select "SD Card"

And we are done.
