How do I....move contents of folder to app drawer?

[rjack22]

I just got a S6 Edge. In the app drawer there are four folders (Google, Verizon, Samsung, Tools and Amazon) with apps in them. I would like to delete one of those folders and put the apps individually into the app drawer. It won't let me do this. I can move apps from the app drawer to the home pages but not the other way around. Is there a way to do this?

What happens if you long-press the folder? Does it give you the option to delete the folder, which should release the apps into the rest of the App Drawer?

Can't delete the folder and if I move the two remaining apps within it only copies the shortcut to my home page. The folder with apps inside still remains.

Did you tap EDIT? That would allow you to manually change the order in which apps appear, including the ability to move them into and out of folders.

Since my wife just got a Note5, I was able to play around with it. Open your App Drawer, tap Edit at the upper right (as mentioned by paridge), then tap the folder and then select Delete Folder. This will get rid of the folder, and dump those apps into the main part of the App Drawer.

Thank you! That did the trick.
