How to move a file in Replit app

Expected behavior:
I can drag or see an option to move a file into a folder

Actual behavior:
It just glitches when I hold a file down

Steps to reproduce:
Go to a repl on the app
Open the file list
Hold on a file
The list of actions doesn’t have a nice option
Try dragging it doesn’t do anything
Close out the file list it glitches out and the selected file doesn’t go away

Hey @CoderGautamYT ! I found this trick from @OmegaOrbitals :
mv [file] [folder]
Hope this helps!

Yeah that’s what I did but not a friendly solution or good use of the interface

This drag and drop is buggy and the Replit Team should be working on it.
Meanwhile, this will have to do.

No, because you still can’t drag and drop files in the mobile app.
