    You have to send a friend request and they have to accept it.

    The update of the forum had made it tricky.

    What works for me (using the browser on my phone or my desktop to consult the forums):
    - tap on the username of the person you want to add: a window will pop up
    - tap on 'view profile': you'll be taken to their forum profile
    - edit the web address of the page by removing 'community.' at the beginning: you'll be taken to their profile where you should see a friend request button

    Oh wow - from a UX perspective, that’s just bad design. I never would have figured that out!! Hopefully they fix it soon.

    Thanks so much for sharing the tricks!!

    And it gets worse - in the app, i can’t edit the URL. So still haven’t found a way to send FR via app (iOS)

    When you are on community level of your app you have got embedded web page style of the page.
    To invite new person you have to tap on 3 lines in front of "myfitnesspal" text at the top of the page. That opens menu and you want to "Find members" Have your wanted buddy nickname ready, search for the person's profile and the add button is on their profile.

    This is the way for android phone, not sure if iphone got it same way.
