Thanks for posting and welcome to the forum! Slightly_smiling_Face

For now that is how it works, and it's not possible to change for now.

It's for the future to tell if that might be changed in a future update or so. Slightly_smiling_Face

In the Xperia ray it moves to the SD-card, since the Xperia ray has no built in external memory.

Well, you can use the memory card for lots of other stuff. For example storing pictures, video and music. Slightly_smiling_Face

In this phone you can't move apps to the SD-card but you can however move them to the internal app-storage (not to be confused by the phone memory).

Click settings > Apps and select the app you want to move. Tap 'move to internal storage'.
