Moving folders · Data Parking (the two-pane mover)
Should I use Data Parking to move apps?
Short answer: No — use the Apps window. It checks which apps are safe to move, leaves a link so they still launch normally, watches for updates that reinstall them, and can offload or uninstall too. Data Parking is for your own folders and files.
No — use the Apps window. It's built for apps: it checks which apps can be moved safely, leaves a link so the app still opens from Launchpad, Spotlight and the Dock, watches for vendor updates that reinstall the app, and can also offload an app with its data or uninstall it.
