### 3/5 — Syncing to Fitbit used to free

*2026-08-15, version 12.6.7*

Disappointed that you have to sign up to premium for a previously free service

### 3/5 — Almost perfect

*2026-08-12, version 12.6.7*

I enjoy this app. It’s easy to fix macro errors on foods entered incorrectly. The free version is also pretty good but I did purchase this app. I do not like the fasting tracking they offer which is the main reason i purchased this app. The fasting part is not easy to use and they’ve made it complicated. It just needs to be a simple start and stop. I have to track my fasting on a separate app. I also like that you can record your blood glucose however there really is no benefit to recording as you can’t go back and review your levels conveniently. This app could become an all in one for food and health management .. hoping it becomes one.

### 3/5 — Easy to use

*2026-08-11, version 12.6.7*

Carb Manager is easy to use and track macros but my weight measurement graph is not working. I have tried all recommendations and the graph still wont populate.

### 5/5 — Fast

*2026-08-10, version 12.6.7*

Like that you can scan your item, perfect!

### 5/5 — Mega tracker!!

*2026-08-10, version 12.6.7*

Tracking is for champs.

### 5/5 — Great for Keto

*2026-08-09, version 12.6.7*

Excellent app for high protein/keto diet tracking.

### 5/5 — The best

*2026-08-09, version 12.6.7*

This is by far the best app out there. It is a little pricey, but worth every penny completely change my life thank you to whoever created it.

### 5/5 — JB

*2026-08-09, version 12.6.7*

This app is very beneficial I use it daily and I lost 50LBs.  My doctor recommended this app to me and it has been very helpful.  I thank God for this app.

### 5/5 — Carb Manager is a great tool!

*2026-08-08, version 12.6.7*

This app made my weight loss journey so much less complicated—especially at first, before I got into a routine. I loved having the convenience of entering a food and being able to quickly tell how many carbs & calories it contained, so I could make wise choices with my “Food budget!”
    The Goals section, with the weight record & graph is soo encouraging! It’s really empowering to watch that line go down!! 
    In a couple more pounds I will have lost HALF of my beginning body weight using this app!
Handy tool indeed!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

### 5/5 — Great except….

*2026-08-08, version 12.6.7*

This app is all around great so far. Logging food and goals and recipe creation is good. I was intrigued by the fasting feature but unfortunately it doesn’t accommodate night shift workers. I wanted to set my eating window 9pm to 4am but it will only go to midnight. Still gave five stars but it would be amazing if this could be easily added!

### 5/5 — Best weight loss app

*2026-08-06, version 12.6.7*

I just got this app and it’s the best thing that has happened to me . I was 120.9 when I started and then 10 minutes later i was 118.6
Is that the app or just me . Well I’ll tell yall at the end of the day . 5 stars right now lol.

### 2/5 — FIX streak counter

*2026-08-06, version 12.6.7*

I am meeting net values with large gaps and the net carb streak resets constantly.  Even though I am following all of the correct steps.  Quite frustrating.

### 5/5 — Five stars

*2026-08-03, version 12.6.7*

This is the best food journal app I’ve ever seen. Full marks

### 5/5 — Using it for years

*2026-07-30, version 12.6.7*

Love this app. You don’t have to be doing low carb or keto to use this app. I make my own food all the time, I freeze things in batches, make my own meals, Thai paste, bread etc, so having an app that can save my recipes and also be able to edit them when I make changes (without having to start again)is great. I can also add a recipe I’ve saved to another, for example I can add my Thai paste recipe to the my Curry recipe (I don’t have to list every ingredient in the paste to the curry recipe) I couldn’t do that on the Zoe app and it drove me mad. If you are someone who makes their own food a lot, then this is the one for you. I also love the different summary views you can see at the top, easily at a glance. I also benefited from the various goal setting it does, so small goes along the way rather than the end goal only being the focus.

### 5/5 — BEST OF THE BEST 👍🏽

*2026-07-28, version 12.6.7*

Carb Manager has been a Blessing to Me. Its the “easiest” and most “user friendly” App I have. It makes tracking “Super Easy” … and takes the stress out of keeping you focused. And the “Recipes” are good as well 🎉 … I love the sprinkles that explode, when I’ve completed my goal each day. Accountability for me 💯🤗🥳 
*** Still Loving This App … BEST I’ve EVER used. 🥳🥳🥳

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Every time I open garbage app

*2026-08-24, version 12.6.7*

Correction from last review, which I see has conveniently NOT been posted. NOW I GET THE PAY ME PAGE EVERY TIME I OPEN THIS GARBAGE APP.

### 1/5 — Food scan

*2026-08-08, version 12.6.7*

It’s very difficult to scan food it doesn’t work for me

### 1/5 — Dont do it

*2026-08-08, version 12.6.7*

You can’t use it unless you pay!!! Doesn’t give the option to try before you buy! SCAM!!!

### 1/5 — First time user

*2026-08-03, version 12.6.7*

I find it not user friendly at all, I find I can’t even enter a simple breakfast that I often eat. I need advice on how to use it which should not be.

### 1/5 — Education

*2026-08-03, version 12.6.7*

It’s helped me learn all about foods n grams and what to cut back on or increase and I like to make no notes to myself at the bottom so I can remind myself and stay on track but I cantfigure out how to adjust my program nor who to ask

### 1/5 — Customer service is AWFUL

*2026-07-21, version 12.6.7*

The app can't produce simple graphs on weight changes and such.  The ai customer service bot is useless.  Don't waste your money!

### 1/5 — Inconsistent, constant adds, breaks regularly

*2026-07-19, version 12.6.7*

At first the app seemed good but after some time I spend more time looking at the ads for the paid version than any other parts of the app. On top of this the camera refuses to work so I cannot scan goods. In the UK nothing is already logged so everything needs adding. Also in the UK fibre values are different and the app cannot support this. Very sad as I found it to be better than myfitnesspal

### 1/5 — Carbs

*2026-07-13, version 12.6.7*

The tracker is hard to fallow. The carb amounts don’t always represent what their value is.

### 1/5 — Constantly upselling and asking for reviews

*2026-06-30, version 12.6.7*

Don’t do that

### 1/5 — Account issues

*2026-06-23, version 12.6.7*

I can not sign into my account despite resetting passwords numerous times. I think I stopped using this app because of log in issues. That's too bad, I'm in a position to recommend this app but will not.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Carb Manager

*2026-08-24, version 12.6.7*

Love it

### 5/5 — Best Macro App

*2026-08-24, version 12.6.7*

This app has helped me lose weight by tracking my macros for YEARS! Every time I have a baby or need some help losing some weight before an event it has come in clutch!

### 5/5 — Great for keto!

*2026-08-24, version 12.6.7*

This app is great! I’ve spent my summer losing weight age learning about the foods I’ve been eating. I don’t think I could’ve lost without Carb Manager. I recommend it to people who use other apps, too! 5 pounds to go until my goal!

### 5/5 — Try out

*2026-08-21, version 12.6.7*

Just trying the app to see how I go on. Up to now all is well

### 5/5 — Helpful and easy to use

*2026-08-20, version 12.6.7*

What I love about this app is the ease of scanning products and being able to track what I’m eating based on whatever diet that I’m applying at the time.

### 5/5 — Good to track

*2026-08-19, version 12.6.7*

I was keto, and it was great for that. I’m on a reverse diet in perimenopause now, and it’s good to apply and track my macros. I like that I can add my own foods/recipes I make as well

### 5/5 — I like it

*2026-08-18, version 12.6.7*

It is a great app, especially been free, but it will be really amazing. If we will have the option to scan the food and the AI will say how much much calories. Everything will have just by scanning in. I had been using it for
Years and it helps me to be couscous of how much I am eating and learn to modify my eating routine

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-08-16, version 12.6.7*

The bar scan feature is gold

### 5/5 — Great For tracking macros

*2026-08-14, version 12.6.7*

Carb manager is a great tool for tracking carbs and getting a great
overall picture of your nutritional choices.

### 5/5 — Keto friendly

*2026-08-12, version 12.6.7*

It tells you whether something is keto friendly based on its nutritional info which has been added by someone in the past (so not always correct but I’ve only had one time it’s been wrong). And you can add your own items in with the nutritional info you know, and save it publicly or privately. Also connects to my apple watch and minuses off the active calories from my total calorie intake for the day which i find very helpful. Thanks for reading my review I hope you have a fantastic day. I spent 4 minutes writing this, you read it in 30 seconds, what a world we live in. Yours sincerely, John Doe (not really my name, get it? John doe is a commonly used name for anonymous people or unknown people, although it does tell you I’m a man…)
