How do I batch import multiple images as individual layers in Krita?

Question

I have already tried importing multiple images with File -> Import Animation Frames. I tried importing a single GIF image and it didn't extract the layers so I did it manually myself, then I went back and tried to import each extracted png frames and it still only imports 1 single frame. What am I doing wrong? Does Krita not have this basic feature?

To import multiple images as individual layers in Krita (4.0) you can use Layer > Import/Export > Import layer and then in the file chooser dialog box, select multiple images and then press import.

For importing sequential frame use the Import Animation Frames, Also use the animation work-space to check your animation layers in Timeline.
