I would like to reduce the number of pages of apps on the Secure Folder by grouping them into app folders. For example, I would like to group social apps like Facebook, X, WhatsApp into an app folder titled Social, all game apps into a folder titled Games, etc. 

How do I create folders and drop apps into them? Like on the home screen outside of the Secure Folder, I pressed and held on an app and tried to drag it onto another app but that did not work.

Thanks!

Long press on the app and drag it on top of the other app just like on your home screen and app drawer

Thanks for your response Gary 82! I did that but it doesn't seem to work. šŸ˜ž The app at the bottom just moved to a spot on the side leaving an empty space for the app being dragged to be placed in.

Does it depend on the version and phone? I am using an S20+ with Secure Folder v 1.8.10.35.

About Secure Folder shows that v 1.8.10.35 is the latest version for my phone. I am not comfortable installing from a 3rd party source, especially for a security app. Hope the Galaxy Store will update the app soon.

Thanks again!
