    Keep clicking on the person's name till you get to their main profile and click add as friend.

    There is no easy way to do it anymore. The instructions given are how it USED to be done - its a zombie post that was resurrected when someone did a search on how to do it.

    Why did they change it?

    Who knows?

    In any case, the best and easiest way is to be on a computer, and simply open a new tab and go directly to YOUR mfp profile, then when you want to go to someone elses, replace YOUR username, with theirs (just copy and paste it). Sometimes you have to refresh multiple times...because its MFP and it can't work right the first time or second time or third time.

    If you are on a phone, I can't help... There is probably a way, but its probably long and convoluted.

    https://www.myfitnesspal.com/callsitlikeiseeit ( thats mine, you would remove my username and replace it with the username of the person you wanted to add/profile you wanted to see. You are welcome to add me but i swear like a sailor, and am not the friend for everyone. but youre welcome to hop aboard the crazy train and check things out if you want)

    The way how to add a friend in this new crappy app design is following.
    When you are on community level of your app you have got embedded web page style of the posts.
    To invite new person you have to tap on 3 lines in front of "my fitness Pal" text at the top of the page. That opens menu and you want to "Find friends" Have your wanted buddy nickname ready, search for the person's profile and the add button is just there.

    It is very long journey to complete such a simple thing but we can just hope it will get easier with an update.

    I just re-started... again. 😐 I could use some friends... feel free to add me.

    Since MFP screwed up the Community section, I made it easier to add me... just click link below:

    I have add to type in the user name in my profile under find members. It’s kind of a drag, but….,

    @Betty I've seen this asked many times, is there anywhere that it is explained so new people can be directed there?
