I have used Gnucash since 2011-01-01. I had never used the import function until this past weekend. I always made all the entries manually. But I recently realized that my bank allows downloading transactions in qfx format and I decided to try it.
It was a good time to do so. I recently returned from a trip where I used Apple Pay on my phone to pay for everything. So every minor thing I did was a separate transaction. I had 72 lines on my credit card statement. I imported it into Gnucash with no problem. The only thing that could have been better was setting the account for all of the transactions. One side was the credit card account and that worked fine. But it set the other side to "Imbalance-USD". I didn't see a way to change that on all of them before the import. So I went through and changed them all manually after the import. It was still a lot easier than entering them manually. In hindsight, I think I probably could have imported just one of them, set the account correctly on it. Then imported the rest and it might have known better what to do with them. I any event, learning to use the import function was a big time saver that I will make more use of in the future. And I wanted to thank the developers for providing it. Thank you.
