Any idea how to remove apps from secured folder? For some reason it isn't giving any options to remove apps. It is only giving a option to uninstall, add to home screen, and app info. I don't want apps un-installed I just want to remove some apps I put in to it.

When you uninstall an app from the secure folder it will only remove it from the secure folder. I don't believe there is an option to remove an app without uninstalling it.

Actually, there is an option to hide them using the burger menu inside the secure folder app screen.1762951622101.jpg

Thank you! I thought it completely uninstall. I think it should say remove instead of uninstall to help stop confusion for others in future.

Well it will uninstall the app but only in the secure folder. Every app in the secure folder is a copy of the app from your phone minus the data you've put into it. Anything done inside the secure folder will not effect anything outside the secure folder unless you're logged into an app like instagram. If you do something on instagram you are no longer in the secure folder you're on the instagram server.
