Answer 1

Quoting the documentation:

In order for your application to consistently behave as expected, you should not allow your application to be installed on the external storage if it uses any of the following features… The system delivers the ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED broadcast before the external storage is mounted to the device. If your application is installed on the external storage, it can never receive this broadcast.

Hence, you cannot allow your app to be installed to external storage.
