I keep getting emails about people on My Fitness Pal who want to connect with me. So, I log on, but can never find them! Where do I find them? I would love to connect with everyone. I just don't know how to do it.

    Click on the little notification bell icon on the MFP homepage. But I've found 90% of the connection requests nowadays are from fake profiles.

    There has been a wave of friend requests from hacked profiles recently. So perhaps you got some of those requests but the accounts were deleted before you had the chance to respond?

    PS: if you want to send friends requests yourself, tap on the person's username: a window will pop up. In that window, tap on their username again and you'll be taken to a page where you can send them a friend request.
    You can also ask for like-minded people on the forums here to send you friend requests, if you give a bit of info about yourself and what kind of interactions you're looking for.

    too see friend requests its a bit different on a PC and phone. on a PC, from your MFP home page, look where I have that big yellow arrow pointing. If you have any requests, it will show up there. Same for messages right next to it.

    on your phone, you would tap the 3 little dots that say 'more' at the bottom right, then scroll down a bit, and youll see any friend requests or messages near the bottom.
