### 2/5 — Can’t import movies from file

*2025-05-23, version 5.6*

Hi, if the users can’t import the movies from files(like excel, txt, word) it is not usable anymore. Because i have a bank of movies in my external storage, and i want to moderate them and categorize by genre, cast, imdb rate… but in this app you can’t do that and you must import any movies by search. and it’s not useful at all
