Deleted part of my last review so I can say the developer is fantastic. I appreciate them replying, and for the update. Old: I love this app, but it seems that I can't import puz files inside the app. 'Add from file' opens the /system folder, and my puzzles are in /storage/emulated/0 (The user accessable path)....

I really like this app. I wish there was a way to automate downloads from additional providers that are available via subscription or freely available online like Fireball or Universal daily. These are all importable from .puz files, but that takes a few steps and, as others have pointed out, importing .puz files can be wonky.
