Inability to install to SD card #2

NativeBOINC needs ability to be installed onto SD card and ability to load project's data onto SD card. Some smartphones have quite low amount of inner storage but can be equipped with inexpensive 32GB micro SD cards. Having plenty of storage room such devices can't load project's apps because of shortage of inner storage space. For example, my Samsung Mini can't get work from WUprops@home project because of low amount of inner storage free space, SubsetSum@home project suffers from same issue and PrimeGrid can't load The Riesel Problem app: device have 65.62MB of free inner space and project requires 190.73MB to be free. FYI all amount of inner storage space on this device is 181MB only.

Inability to move data to SD card makes this device useless for BOINC though NativeBOINC installed und runs on it OK.
