### Operating system

Android

### Joplin version

3.6.22

### What issue do you have?

I am trying to import multiple notes from Samsung Notes on an Android phone into Joplin on another Android phone. I converted the Samsung Notes notes into \*.md files using Jimmy Import. Then in Joplin I chose Import and Export, then Import from Text, then selected the folder the md files are in. But I am only able to import one file at a time. I am not able to select and import multiple files. Importing one file at a time is not practical.

I replied to the thread you referred. I want to import bulk Samsung Notes notes into Joplin on an Android phone. So if I import them into the desktop Joplin app, how go I get them on my phone?
