Verified feature request does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

💻

  • Would you like to implement this feature?

Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?

Hello 👋

When selecting an OFX file with 1500 transactions to import, the message "No transactions found" is displayed few seconds until the file is successfully read which is a little bit misleading.
I thought at first that my file was invalid because the same message appears when a file cannot be processed.

Describe your ideal solution to this problem

Add a loader or a more suitable message while processing the file like "Reading transactions, please wait"
