It's very simple.
Once the stock price has been adjusted to reflect the split, change your number of shares by the ratio of the split.
If 2-for-1 split, double your number of shares
If 3-for-1 split, triple your number of shares
If 3-for-2 split, multiply your number of shares by 1.5
If 5-for-4 split, multiply your number of shares by 1.25
If reverse split, opposite is true.
Here's another way of explaining that might be simpler:
Change the split multiple to a fraction (i.e. for 2-for-1, 2/1, for 3-for-1 3/1, for 3-for-2 3/2, for 5-for-4 5/4) and multiply your number of shares by that fraction to get your newly adjusted number of shares.

After clicking the edit button ,
Enter the amount of shares now ,
Then make sure to adjust your cost basis .
Eg , if you got a 3 for 1 & 100 shares became 300 ,
Divide your cost by 3 to account for the change .
