How do I remove an app from a folder and return it to the App Drawer on my Galaxy S21 5G? I have tried holding and moving the app up out of the folder but that only puts the app onto the Home screen and not in the App Drawer.

Thanks for your reply however all that does is allows me to add the app to the home screen, Uninstall the app, select it or open widgets. There is nothing that allows me to move the app out of the folder back to the app drawer. I can achieve the result by deleting the folder completely but that seems like a heavy way just to move an app.

Thanks for your response however when I open the folder it does not open in app drawer so I cannot drag the app to an empty space between the rows of apps. I think the only way is to delete the folder but this seems like a cumbersome way of moving a single app out of a folder. I have dleted the folder now and all the apps are back in the app drawer. Now I have to rebuild the folder with out the app that I wanted removed.

I have now simply deleted the folder. This puts all the apps in that folder back into the app drawer. However I now have to recreate the folder and return all the apps back into the new folder except the one I wanted to remove. This is a cumbersome way of doing it but at least it worked. Surely there is a better way of simply removing an app from a folder without hassle.

Ours and hold the app, drag it outside of the border of the folder, then the rest of the folders will appear and you can place the app in another folder or back on the desktop

Mine is a folder I made with apps I downloaded. They are not preset ones or ones that come in a set in a way. It literally won't remove doordash from a folder i made that is about medical stuff.
