It was super easy to use but there is not enough options and I couldn’t get it to scan any of my bar codes! ### 3/5 — Decent for carb tracking *2024-01-11, version 2.0.4* Nice free app, easy to scan or search for foods. Not as complete a list as I’d like, but hey, free and easy. ### 3/5 — Customized foods!!! *2023-10-07, version 2.0.2* Can’t wait for this feature to roll out in 2024. As of right now, it’s useless to me. When I scanned the UPC of the low carb protein shake I drink every morning - “NO RESULTS”. Not even if I try to type it in and search for it. Oh well. I’ll just keep tracking on paper. Thanks? ### 3/5 — Good App *2023-09-07, version 1.5.0* This is a good app but it’s cumbersome. I eat the same thing for breakfast all the time. I’d like to add “usual breakfast. 3 carbs” but I can’t, I have to list each element and the tap “add” and “okay” after each. However, it has a broad range of foods in its data and so far I’ve been able to find everything I’ve wanted to enter. ### 4/5 — Just got this app *2023-09-06, version 1.5.0* I just started using this app. Pretty easy to use, but it would be great if the app I put on my iPad, updated info to the one on my iPhone. So far that is the only drawback. I couldn’t find the exact yogurt I’m eating but found the same brand with a different portion size, which will be a good estimate for me. If info would update from iPad to iPhone, you would get a five star from me. ### 3/5 — Problems with unavailability *2023-09-01, version 1.5.0* love the app but few times over the last week the dreaded circling has delayed and made it hard to input my meals. Also two foods that didn’t pull up were celery and butter. needs data updates ### 2/5 — Ok but frustrating *2023-08-20, version 1.5.0* I was excited at first thinking it was a simple way to count carbs. It quickly became apparent that the food choices were common American brands and Canadian brands were not available. It would be useful to be able to enter missing brands/foods that I normally use and save them for use the next day or later in the week. The camera was a great idea though. ### 3/5 — Missing significant item *2023-08-16, version 1.5.0* How does a carb counter app not have one of the most used tortillas for keto dieters (Mission ZERO Net Carbs tortillas) ??? ### 3/5 — Pretty good *2023-08-11, version 1.5.0* Needs to add more products to site. I took pictures of several upc codes and they are not available ### 2/5 — Doesn’t track net carbs correctly *2023-07-31, version 1.5.0* First, I’m having trouble finding a certain low carb snack bar. I see no way to add it to the database. So, I selected an item that should be similar to my unfound item. But, the selected item is an Atkin bar. This app counts the Atkin net carb at almost 32 net carbs!!! Way off. Atkin net carbs usually between 3 to 5 carbs. I won’t be using this app. ### 4/5 — Pretty good *2023-05-03, version 1.5.0* This will be a great app once they get the data base for the UPC scan updated. Maybe add the feature for the user to scan and add or send a picture off the label in an y’all add it? ### 4/5 — Review *2023-01-30, version 1.5.0* Simple but works well. Easy to input foods and breaks down for you. ### 3/5 — Need to be able to add food *2023-01-03, version 1.5.0* I like the app it is quick and easy but there are so many things I have to improvise. We need to be able to add foods and macros ### 4/5 — Simple to use. *2022-11-07, version 1.5.0* User friendly app no doubt. Only wish that you could bring your selected foods into the next day instead of having to re-enter each time. ### 4/5 — Perfect! *2022-09-14, version 1.5.0* Exactly what I was looking for. Simple and easy. Was looking for app to track low carb eating and this is perfect! Just wish you could purchase at small cost to eliminate ads. Thanks. ### 3/5 — Carbs are off. *2022-07-15, version 1.5.0* The bread carbs are not accurate. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Create account doesn’t work?? is that used to be *2026-02-05, version 2.0.4* I don’t know what happened with this site I used to just be able to log on no passwords, etc. no need to create an account now it says it wants a password?? I tried to create an account and it won’t let me do it and no way to contact them to find out what’s going on. Very upsetting as it was a great site. ### 1/5 — Nope 👎🏼 *2023-08-02, version 1.5.0* Not easy to track what amount of the food portion your eating. Not easy to cancel account ### 1/5 — seems inaccurate *2023-08-02, version 1.5.0* measurements and servings sizes in this app are all over the place ### 1/5 — Not working. *2023-05-11, version 1.5.0* I type in a name of the food and nothing is coming up ### 1/5 — Where’s the portion size? *2023-01-02, version 1.5.0* It is an easy to use app, but no good for me. I want to calculate by portion size. The portion isn’t indicated anywhere, so maybe it’s the right portion 🤷🏼‍♀️ ### 1/5 — You ruined it *2022-08-25, version 1.5.0* Your old version was simple and easy to use Your new version is too confusing to be of any use. Go back to the original version. I like to customize the carb count for various foods. ### 1/5 — Broken app *2022-07-27, version 1.5.0* The concept is awesome. The execution is failed. I try to add a food, it doesn’t show up, so I add it again and now there are two items. So I delete one and both get deleted. I’m disappointed it doesn’t work. ### 1/5 — Can’t find simple foods like walnuts?! *2022-07-10, version 1.5.0* I just wanted this app to be a simple tracker for macronutrients and it looked good at first glance. However when I tried to track my breakfast of yoghurt, raspberries and walnuts, the search came up empty for walnuts. I tried just searching nuts and many other types came up but no walnuts…I don’t have a lot of faith in the app if it can’t locate even whole foods :( ### 1/5 — Disappointing *2022-05-29, version 1.5.0* I like how it tracks carbs, fiber and net carbs. It is unable to identify most barcodes. When I look up a food, the examples given are very inaccurate when compared to any particular food nutrition facts listed on factory label. Also, I have found that it cannot find several name-brand foods when I type them into the search bar. It does not give me an option to add in my own nutrition facts, it only will allow me to enter its own nutrition facts which are usually incorrect. Therefore, I am very disappointed. If I could enter my own nutritional facts this app would be a lot more useful to me. ### 1/5 — Deleted app *2022-04-18, version 1.4.2* If they don’t have what you’re eating, you can’t “create” your own entry. Something simple where you just add your own nutrition information. I don’t want to have to scroll down a huge list just to try and find something close. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Problem opening app *2024-04-17, version 2.0.4* When I try to sign it it tells me I have the wrong password. But when I click reset password it never sends me a email. I also tried to sign up with a different email it said their was a problem and to contact you this was the only way I could find to contact you Thank you for contacting me. I finally got it to accept a different email address. I appreciate your help ### 5/5 — Great *2023-06-21, version 1.5.0* On a bill right now and it tracks all the stuff I need, carbs, protein, fat and calories, even divides the carbs down into net carbs and fibre. Great app ### 5/5 — Why can't I find *2023-04-17, version 1.5.0* I can't find several foods that I eat like kefir and banana I mean why is banana not listed? Olive oil avacado oil ### 5/5 — Love the app -great for diabetics *2023-03-27, version 1.5.0* I really do love this app. As a diabetic who is reducing my carb intake (but not going Keto), it is helpful to track my carbs to keep them lower and/or find lower carb options. This has been great. A few things that would make it even better. Suggestions/Ideas 🔸regularly update foods. I tried to add yasso frozen yogurt poppables and Yasso frozen yogurt mochi. It wasn’t found and I couldn’t update or add it myself. Also no listing for Orowheat small slice and other small slice loaves have more carbs than the selection I buy, so I can’t accurately substitute the bread I have with the listing available 🔸if you can’t keep new foods updated then allow a way to add a picture of the nutrition information label then manually enter the carb, protein, fats, or other into the user’s data base 🔸 sorting or look up by market where purchased to limit having to go through long lists of foods from markets not found on the west coast (where I live) 🔸not all breads have the option to add by slice rather than serving. Other serving sizes don’t reflect the carb count being tracked accurately 🔸list total carbs first and net carbs second (as a diabetic tracking carbs we don’t track by net carbs but by total carbs- less deceiving because total carbs affect insulin doses) 🔸consider hooking into the Dex-com app to transfer your tracking system into the DexCom events app for carb management ### 5/5 — It’s the simplest carb tracker ♥️ *2022-11-05, version 1.5.0* I’m borderline diabetic and estrogen is too high. So while looking for carb counter to help me keep this in range I came across CarbsToGo. It’s great but don’t see how I can register on the app and sync with Health app on my iPhone to send to my doctor or nutritionist. Is this a feature that will be added? ### 5/5 — New and useful *2022-10-31, version 1.5.0* I just started using it today. It is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks. Simple and effective. I have type 2 diabetes and my dietician/nutritionist wants me to stay within a goal for carbs. This does it! ### 5/5 — Love ! *2022-07-17, version 1.5.0* Guesswork and little tracking notebooks are gone now this is fantastic!!!! ### 5/5 — Love this app! *2022-07-07, version 1.5.0* It was exactly what I was looking for! ### 5/5 — It’s OK *2022-06-15, version 1.5.0* I like the app but wish there was an option to input my own carb info for certain foods ### 5/5 — Carbs to Go *2022-06-10, version 1.5.0* Best FREE app for tracking net carbs. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
