    Weird. My phone app lets me enter decimals for servings.

    Since I always do entries in grams and pick the 100 g serving, I almost always have a decimal somewhere. It's weird that yours doesn't show it.

    Isn't the decimal point that little 'period' to the left of the zero button? Looks like one to me, and works just fine on the version of the app I'm using.

    There have been several reports of the calculator missing its icons after the update making it impossible to use partial servings. Try re-downloading the app if you haven’t already.

    I’m always doing .5 of servings or 1.5 etc

    I sometimes go to 3 places like .125 for 1/8. Works fine.

    My spouse had this happen on his android. We updated our phones and his MFP keypad is out of alignment on the page and cut off, even if he turns it to landscape, he is unable to see the decimal point. He's been using my iphone or the computer to log. Tried deleting the app and downloading it again and it hasn't changed.

    That's the issue, the decimal is off the side of the page and unreachable. It's a glitch in the update for some folks.

    So he can't access the 1,4, or 7 keys either? That would definitely be a problem.

    Yep, it's a show stopper. I read where some other folks have no icons showing up even though they can see all their numbers. IDK. Hopefully, it's fixed soon. I wonder if it's just an android issue. We only have iphones, and no issues.

    His numbers are cut off too. For now, we'll deal with it since he has alternatives. If I was paying for the app I would make a bigger fuss. It's been reported so that's all we can do.

    can you switch to the fraction option and select 1/2?

    I will double check his phone when he comes home this evening but I am pretty sure he tried it and the fraction panel was also cut off on the left side. :|

    Appreciate the suggestion though!

    I have the exact same problem after the update!! When I need to put in my food, it's not a problem, because I switched to using 1 gram instead of 100 gram as a portion.
    But trying to fill in my weight is a problem. So that's something I do on my desktop..... :(

    I spend about a quarter of my time at work in QC. It never ceases to amaze me that my little company has better QC procedures than MFP. Yes, supporting many different mobile devices is a PITA. But it's something that needs to be done. And the Staging environment needs to match Production, for crying out loud.
