    Your previous post was less than two hours before this one, slightly impatient 😉
    Also, these forums are not a kerosene, just other users like you, even if some people from MFP occasionally reply.

    Quick add on the free app is only for adding calories. If you want to add macros via quick add as well, you need the premium version. It's always been like that, as far as I can remember (but I might be wrong, it's not a functionality I use often).

    Yeah, I don't think I've ever had the option to Quick Add macros on the free version. I've been on only the free version since 2007.

    Also, @Lietchi, what does this mean?

    ..or do I just need to Google that? :lol:

    OMG, I hate my phone keyboard's swipe mode 😆 I meant 'helpdesk' or something like that!

    Yeah, Google was no help.

    I never use my phone with MFP. I can only imagine the gobbledygook that would appear if I did! Thanks for letting me know it wasn't my lack of coolness.

    There are some generic listings that people have added for probably the same reason. Here's what I found -

    Generic Protein - Generic Protein - 1g - 4 cal
    Generic - Carbohydrate - 1g - 4 cal
    Generic Fat - Generic Fat - 1g - 9 cal

    So you would just have to enter how many g of each that you ate. You won't get info on the fat composition that way but as a quick add, it should work.
