Hi @cyber_nett, The way it should work: single tap on the folder to enlarge it , move one one app out by hold and drag.
But make space on the page first

Thanks for your answer, @chrisrg. EXACTELY, the problem occurs because there is no more space for icons on the screen where the folder is. Trying to drag an icon out of the folder will result in a system message saying “No more room in page”. No such problem once the folder is on the second screen or if there is at least one empty icon space on the screen where the folder is.
My conclusion: There won’t be a new screen made available automatically just by dragging app icons out of a folder. Was a bit frustrating for me, but I realize now that this probably helps to keep different screens apart from each other and organized.
My solution and example of a screen where dragging out the app icon from the folder isn’t a problem anymore:

Thanks, I found it by myself too. I expected that there would be an option on Bliss Launcher to do so, when long pressing in no-launcher
On a brand jew Fairphone3+ bought directly from /e/ OS (latest version of /e/ updated) I have a range of applications that are installed (e. g. Magic Earth) but do not appear on the Bliss launcher.
At this moment the only way I see for launching this kind of app is getting to the general settings, then Applications, then finding it, the clicking on ‘launch’.
Among others, they don’t even appear in the small apps widget when I start typing their name (which would be a very convoluted behavior already, imposing to retain each name)
I suppose this pathetic behavior results from my not knowing Bliss enough?
Could you help me to bring back their launch icons within Bliss?
TIA!

Merci Trefix!
En effet…
Est-ce que je comprends correctement que TOUT ce qu’on installe apparaît obligatoirement dans le lanceur (quitte à l’expédier dans un sous-dossier d’un écran secondaire)?
C’est quand même très inhabituel comme fonctionnement pour quiconque arrive sur /e/ en provenance de n’importe quel autre smartphone…
Merci encore!

Bonjour.
Oui, c’est le fonctionnement par défaut, en effet, pour les applications tierces. Je n’ai jamais un d’iphone, je ne sais pas si ce comportement en est copié ou inspiré.
Je sais par contre qu’il est très difficile de ranger les lanceurs selon ses goûts, même si sur ce point la version 0.19 semble enfin plus “souple”. Mais nécessite toujours une bonne dose de patience.
============
“Do I understand correctly that EVERYTHING you install must appear in the launcher ?”
Yes, this is default, indeed, for third party apps. I’ve never had an iPhone, I don’t know if this behaviour is copied or inspired by it.
I do know that it is very difficult to arrange the launchers according to your taste, even if version 0.19 finally seems more “flexible” on this point. But it still requires a good dose of patience.

Je n’ai jamais eu d’iPhone non plus, j’arrive juste d’une décennie d’usage de téléphones Android “ordinaires” imposés par mon employeur, récemment des Samsung…
Sur les lanceurs, j’ai finalement testé plusieurs d’entre eux, et pour l’instant si je devais changer ce serait pour Zim, bien stable et qu’on peut plus largement adapter…
I never had an iPhone, I’m just coming from a dozen year of using ‘ordinary’ employer-supplied Android phones, the latest being Samsungs.
About launchers, I did try some, and if I had to switch now that’d be for Zim, which appears stable and way more flexible…
In order to improve Bliss Launcher and avoid to have to do some place before we move an icon on a fully launcher page like what tried @cyber_nett, do we have to do an improvement request or ils it something already planned in roadmap? I encountered too that issue some weeks ago and it’s frustating and not enough easy to use i would say
Thanks
We have a long list of suggestions and feedback for improving the Launcher 
You can check if the issue is already shared or create a new one.

Thank you so much, I just bought my murena and was afraid it was already bugged
about an option of hiding/unhiding an app:
A complete revision of the code of the BlissLauncher is underway. You can add these suggestion on gitlab and add it to the developers TODO list
this is what I also wanted to do, but no luck with my email address to be added to gitlab. please help
