A little confused on MFP

So I do the keto diet but I’m getting frustrated with the app.
I see the macro pie chart, numbers look good there. However when i click on Nutrition seems my numbers are off...like I’m short in protein and fat but from the pie chart, my numbers are on target.
So what do I follow? Pie chart or the numbers listed in Nutrition?
Thanks in advance!

I'm going to be totally honest here. I love MFP but when I did keto I had to use another app. I know several people in my keto support groups who were perfectly happy using MFP to track everything but for me nothing ever added up correctly. Sorry I wasn't much help - hopefully someone else has some better insight!0

The pie chart just shows you the percentage of calories eaten for the three macros. If you’re tracking your macros, you want to actually follow the number of grams.6
