Cannot Access Existing Apps On Transferred Sd Card

Hello all, Just now I have inserted my old 8GB SD card into my Huawei G6. It seems I cannot access existing apps that I installed on my SD card from my previous phone, like whatsapp. Here is what I have done: 1: transferred files, data, apps etc to SD card 2: inserted SD card on G6 3: Set standard storage location to SD card instead of internal storage in the settings/device/storage folder I think the 3rd step somehow could have erased nearly everything I had on the SD card. The funny thing is that whatsapp and a few other random files are in the miscellanous section, which I cant touch (only option is to delete). Also, I can move apps on the SD card just fine, its the recovery of the old apps I am looking for without going to the Play store and lose the data that was builded up on my previous phone. The question I have is how to recover the 'hidden' apps on my SD card without doing anything like jailbreaking

You cannot just insert an SD card from another phone and use the apps on it. You need to install the apps from the Google Play Store or via an APK or they won't work.
