Track import should support multiple files
Not a Problem
When using Add > Import > System File manager, the file manager opens to, for example, import GPX files. However, only one file can be selected at once. This makes importing external GPX files very tedious.
A workaround is to ZIP the files in another app first, and then import the ZIP file - which imports all GPX files inside that ZIP. But the system file dialogue should simply support selecting multiple files
The same problem 
Hi,
it is not possible to import multiple files from the system file manager only. This is due to Android's restrictions on full file access for Locus Map. However, you can import multiple files from Dropbox, OneDrive, and Locus Map's own directory. If you set it to the Android/media sector, which is fully accessible, you can copy your files there and import them in a batch.
Another option is to install the AFA ("all files access") version of Locus Map from our public repo, which bypasses the batch import ban from the system file manager.

I installed Locus on Media. I can also access Google Drive through the system file manager. But there, I can only select one file at a time. Before, when GDrive was still allowed, you could select multiple files.
Did I understand that correctly? If I install the AFA on Media, will that work again?
Is there anything I need to keep in mind, or can I just select the AFA during the next update or beta release?
Are there any drawbacks to using the AFA?
