My daily calorie goal was increased. So the app is allowing me to eat more. Is this a bug? This was not happening last December. Is anybody seeing the same.

    There's been a lot of people posting about this. It appears MFP adjusted how they calculate calories. The new way of calculating results in a higher calorie allowance. If you want to go back to the calories you had, you'll have to manually adjust your calories (which everyone really should do anyway... the calories MFP gives are just a suggestion, after all).
