Just updated the app and see that now macro percentages are calculated. However, I noticed that if you have more or less than a "serving size"...let's say you're trying to increase protein a bit...then the macro percentage does not change/increase. Also, same goes for nutrition facts-if you have more or less than a serving size, the nutrition facts remain the same. Frustrating when trying to track macros.

4 years after this was brought up and still no update. I guess it's just not coming ever.

I have been using Fitbit for a long time and just now realized that this is a thing. My doctor recommended a high fiber diet and I did not realize that the fiber content in the food tracker was not updating based on serving sizes. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. There is no reason you should track something in this app if you cannot be accurate with it.

I agree. I quit using that app for food. Now I use MyFitnessPal. It will
adjust to portion size.
