I had to wait for over 30 minutes while trying to import a rather large deck but because this screen wasn’t showing any progress update, I resorted to cancelling and reimporting a few times, as I feared the process was stuck.
The check media showed media was actually getting imported and that helped. I’m sure it’ll be worth it for the import screen to also show the progress.
AnkiDroid used to show hard numbers which gives you an estimate for how long the import will take, but with the new import screen that comes from upstream, we’ve lost that functionality.
This sounds like it may be an AnkiDroid-specific issue, as the desktop version should already a) be showing the count of imported media files, and b) cancelling the import when the progress window is closed. Are either of those things not the case?
Import is cancelled when I close the progress window but I don’t see the count of imported media files. Just immediately before the import finishes, I see something like “Gathering data”/“Processing n cards” but not before.
