Unusable
I bought this app years ago for a one off payment. Instead of the free version that didn’t have as much. But now my version doesn’t have and Cals in it and they want me to pay a monthly subscription to upgrade which I can’t afford. Surely they can’t change the old version to exclude Cals. It’s still called carbs and CALS ! I think it’s really disgusting.

Ok but needs work
I have just cancelled my free trial and deleted the app. My previous app nutracheck had a massively wider database of foods whereas this one misses loads.
Sure I could scan the label and then I have faff around checking what’s been scanned in compared to what the label says. There are als no widgets. One product barcode I scanned today was identified as the wrong product.

Add Photo-based carb estimation
Carbs & Cals is a great app for carb counting, but it would be even better if there were an option to add a photograph to estimate carbs. Being able to upload or take a photo of a meal could help users judge portion sizes more accurately, especially for homemade meals or when eating out.
A photo-based carb estimate feature would reduce guesswork, save time, and make tracking more realistic in everyday situations where exact measurements aren’t available. It could be a really valuable addition for users who rely on visual guidance to manage their carb intake more confidently.

Response from developer
Thanks for the feedback, we’re glad you find Carbs & Cals helpful. You can already add a photo to help estimate carbs. In the food scanner, tap the icon next to the large round button to upload your own image or take a photo. This can be useful for homemade meals or eating out. We appreciate you taking the time to share your ideas.
Not very good
I’d like the app better if I didn’t have to pay for basically any ethnic food so it’s basically useless to me. I’m sure it even charges for simple toast which makes it worse
Very useful and can be shared across devices
Very useful app. Sharing the app subscription works a little differently but you can share with three devices. Support for the app was superb though!
