    To add an MFP friend, click on their username.

    To add a Fitbit friend, you need their private URL. Mine is https://www.fitbit.com/user/278TJW To get yours, go to Fitbit.com & click your profile pic at top right.

    You can find more friends in the Fitbit Users group: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/1290-fitbit-users

    Thanks! When I click on a username, it just takes me to my MFP app home screen. When I go to add friends, it gives me 3 options and I click on the one that says use email or username, but then it only has a place to put an email. I'm not sure if I should type the username there.

    You must have the Android app—the forums aren't available for iOS yet.

    Try using your web browser instead of the app.

    I'm using Safari and it's not working. I just tried to add you in MFP and it says invalid username, so idk. Thank you.

    For me, clicking on a name launches the iOS app. When I go back to Safari, there's a screen telling me to download the app. If I click "skip" (sometimes it's in a foreign language, which is super annoying), I'm taken to the user's profile page.

    Clunky, but it works.
