Carbs Cals App Reviews

I'm 53 years young and was in great shape all my life. Sat year my son was diagnosed with cancer. I completely stopped taking care of myself and not eating well. I gained 15 pounds and was diagnosed with diabetes. Now that my so is getting better I realized I had lost control. This app has helped me regain my mental state. So far I've lost 10 pounds and in my way to loose 10 more. With the app it takes the guess work out of my busy day. Thank you for this wonderful app!! 140 is my goal.

Good potential but TERRIBLE food database.

I used this app one time and it was worthless. The don't even have eggs in their database. I needed to count my carb for 6 meals. This app has the ability to track 6 meals but that's about it. Waste of money and time. Maybe one day they will add to their database. Until then, I will keep looking for a carb tracker. Unless you have $7.99 you want to throw away, stay away from thos app.

You are really limited on food choices. Many simple foods are not listed. A 5.99 mistake.

My doctor recommended this app to help me count carbs. He said it was fantastic, so I rushed to get it. I mean, if a doctor recommends it, it's got to be great, right?? I do like it for counting carbs, but it won't allow me to "select" a time on my entries, and it won't allow me to "select" the duration of my exercise. This app is WAY TOO EXPENSIVE, in my opinion, to have a problem with those features. It won't allow you to record the exercise if you haven't selected the duration, and even though that's an option, the app won't do it. As for the time, it records the time of entry but doesn't allow you to adjust the time even though that's an option! I could have spent nothing, and gotten an app just to count carbs!!

Dislike app wish could get money back. Not suited for low carb hi fat

This app was the biggest rip off I have ever encountered. 7.99 for really very limited information. This is more for diabetics than weight loss. A dud.

I hate this app. It is not user friendly, it is limited on food options, such as it list coke or cola, but not diet versions. It offers food choices that are common to U.S. terminology such as "eggy toast" that I assume is French Toast. It doesn't list items such as bacon, sausage, only Greek yogart. The descripiton in the free version is misleading. I don't recommend buying this app.

Theoretically great idea however falls short. 1) Meal dates do not update. 2) Pistachios show up in the Portugal menu only. I guess they are not eaten in USA 3) Lots of food not represented and this makes the potentially brilliant program of little use 4) All country food databases should simultaneously be activated and searchable

I thought this would be a great electronic way to keep track of carbs while also having the ability to check calorie counts. The information failed to tell you that this app originated in the UK. The food choices are different and don't support the diet of the US. This was a waste of money for me and am still searching for something better - similar to the Calorie King book.

I love this app and have list 30 pounds in 12 weeks JUST keeping carbs down to 35-50 g per meal. So easy. BUT there needs to be a bug fix with the new iOS 8. When entering exercise the interface will not allow input of duration or click time. Worked perfect before updating to 8. Even updated to 8.0.2. Still won't allow duration. Please look into this. Thanks for a terrific and useful app

Its a good idea to use pictures to help define portions, but it crashes and deletes the meals your adding.

You can find the carbs in something called saltanas, but if you want to know the carbs in something as simple as a tomato, forget it.

Since the upgrade app did not work. Reloaded it and now it wants me to pay again. I don't think so! Really liked this app but not going to pay for it again.

This is the slowest most annoying app. I get results quicker google searching everything.

Most people on diabetes forums have recommended this app so I downloaded it and so far disappointed because foods aren't in there you can't track exercise and feel it was a waste of six dollars since support told me it wouldn't be fixed until 2015

this app has a lot of potential, especially for kids and others who are helped by a visual presentation. It's true, however, that it does not support the American diet. I think it would be wonderful to have an app like this that did, though more daunting to develop because we have so many food choices.
