### 4/5 — Almost perfect, good value premium services

*2026-07-02*

This app works very well for me, I am using it for macros tracking on keto. You can adjust the allowances to be keto or low carb; it would be even better if users could define their own macro targets but they are set to 20g carbs for keto and 100g for low carb. It has a plate scan feature, barcode reading and a good database for looking up values which is all very handy. It also gives the option to add half of calories burned in exercise to allowances.
 However, this is supposed to be a keto diet app yet it still seems to go on standard diet advice, recommending lean meat, nagging about eating ‘too much’ saturated fat and the recipes are also according to this standard. I assume it’s AI and just shoves standard advice in there but it is a real shame as this app would be tremendous if all the features supported a low carb lifestyle… Another odd thing is that the analysis is a bit off,  it randomly says there are trans fats in unprocessed foods such as cream and lamb, very strange. So… I just ignore the analysis feature as it’s pretty useless, as are the recipes. The tracking in the app is great and really helps me stay on track.

**Developer response:** Hi! Thank you for such thoughtful feedback—we're really glad MyNetDiary is helping you stay on track with your keto macros. Just to clarify, you can create your own custom macro targets with a Premium membership. Regarding the food analysis, our database contains over 2 million verified foods from USDA, NCC, and food manufacturers. If you find incorrect nutrition data, please send us the product details or nutrition label at support@mynetdiary.com, and we'll review and update it, usually within 24 hours. We really appreciate your feedback!

### 4/5 — Creating recipes

*2026-05-18, version 10.13*

Everything about this is great! Very easy to use and easy to navigate. It’s also very accurate. However, I don’t understand why you can’t create recipes. That should be standard feature. Especially since the main app mynetdiary allows it.

### 4/5 — Yes!

*2026-04-22, version 10.13*

Can make sure I’m eating well on GLP-1

### 4/5 — It’s nice!

*2026-04-22, version 10.13*

I love this app, you could search stuff up and most of the time it’ll pop up exactly what you’re looking for, but if it doesn’t pop up..good luck.

### 5/5 — Great and easy

*2026-03-10, version 10.7*

I love using this app

### 5/5 — Finally a Carb Tracker That Actually Makes Sense

*2026-03-09*

I’ve tried a lot of nutrition apps and this one is by far the easiest for tracking carbs and understanding what I’m eating. The Carb Genius feature helps break things down in a way that’s simple and practical. I use it to manage my blood sugar, cholesterol, and overall health goals, and it really helps me stay on track without feeling overwhelmed. The food database is huge and the tracking is very accurate. If you’re trying to eat smarter or follow a lower-carb lifestyle, this app is a game changer.

### 5/5 — Tracking

*2026-03-08, version 10.7*

It helps to give me a general idea on where I am throughout the day for carbs, proteins & fat
Keeps alertness on things that are better for me by providing a good grade

### 5/5 — Carb Genius

*2026-02-20, version 10.6*

I love this Ap as a tool to lose weight. Finding and logging food is easy. 
Track exercise and water too. 
Great for looking forward into your day for guidance on later meal in the day to guide on what to eat later in the day. Highly recommend for people trying to lose or gain or just maintain.

Thank you

### 5/5 — Lost Weight & Kept it Off

*2026-02-11*

I have tried many diets my whole life. I never had an excessive weight problem until I hit menopause. I put on 15+ pounds and my usual ways to take off weight did not work. First and foremost I do not exercise. I started using this app in February and dropped 13 lbs in three months. It is one year later and I am still at the same weight. 
Set your goal low, extend over a long period and you will easily see the results. I gain a little now and the because I go over the maintenance calories but it comes off quickly when I adjust my plan to loose the weight in one month not one week. I am able to drink my adult beverages but still eat carbs moderately.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND

### 5/5 — Carb Genius is Fantastic!

*2026-02-10*

It tracks everything I need as a diabetic, including glucose readings, insulin taken, what I ate for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks including carb and calorie intake. It walks you through setting weight, calorie intake and other goals. It has been a super, all-inclusive app. I highly recommend it to any diabetic looking for a one-source app to maintain all of your records, and any Keto diet participant. You can see the cause of weight gain or loss, and all of those other questions you may be asking yourself, “Why?!”

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-02-09*

Very easy to use

### 1/5 — Unreliable

*2026-08-18, version 10.31*

If you’re using a GLP-1, you must re-enter your information multiple times per day. Not worth using with a GLP-1. I have the paid version. No help from the company.

### 1/5 — Preview Please

*2026-05-23, version 10.15*

I would like to preview how this works before having to pay for it.  I think it processed a payment, but I am  it really sure!

### 1/5 — Abzocke

*2026-04-15*

Ich hatte mich hier angemeldet auf Empfehlung…, und daraufhin festgestellt, dass es die falsche App ist, und daraufhin habe ich fristgerecht meine Anmeldung zurückgezogen und habe außerdem schriftlich gekündigt. Es wurde trotzdem Geld abgezogen, nach drei Monaten noch mal. Und auf meine Nachfrage und den Hinweis auf meine Kündigung sorry, dass ich mich in der App nicht komplett angemeldet habe, wurde mir mitgeteilt, ich hätte jeden Tag ein Foto meiner Mahlzeiten machen sollen um meinen Beitrag zurückzubekommen.🤷🏼‍♀️ 
Einfach nur Betrug, Finger weg!

**Developer response:** Es tut uns leid zu hören, dass Sie eine so frustrierende Erfahrung gemacht haben. Wir möchten klarstellen, dass MyNetDiary kein betrügerisches Verhalten verfolgt und keine Rückerstattungen an Bedingungen wie das Fotografieren von Mahlzeiten geknüpft sind.

Es scheint hier möglicherweise ein Missverständnis oder eine Verwechslung mit einer anderen App vorzuliegen, insbesondere da Sie erwähnen, dass es sich um die falsche App handelte. Abonnements werden je nach Plattform (Apple App Store oder Google Play) direkt über den jeweiligen Store verwaltet und müssen dort gekündigt werden.

Bitte kontaktieren Sie uns direkt unter support@mynetdiary.com

### 1/5 — Abzocke

*2026-04-01*

Bei mir das gleiche. Ich benutze die App nicht und hab sie auch gekündigt und trotzdem wollen die mir 69,-€ abziehen.

**Developer response:** Es tut uns leid, dass das passiert ist — das ist natürlich sehr frustrierend.

In den meisten Fällen liegt es daran, dass das Abo nicht rechtzeitig vor der Verlängerung gekündigt wurde. Um zukünftige Abbuchungen zu vermeiden, kündige das Abo bitte direkt über Apple:

https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202039

Rückerstattungen werden leider ausschließlich von Apple bearbeitet. Du kannst hier eine Anfrage stellen:

Falls du Hilfe brauchst, melde dich gern bei uns — wir unterstützen dich 💚

### 1/5 — Don’t download

*2026-03-14, version 10.7*

I just spent an hour entering all of my food data for the day. And when I clicked on a recipe in the app, all my data disappeared. It isn’t worth my time or energy.

### 1/5 — Sprache

*2026-02-25*

Man kann die Sprache nicht umstellen. So etwas sollte vor dem Kauf bekanntgegeben werden!!!!! Null Sterne deswegen. Abzocke!

**Developer response:** Wir entschuldigen uns,


Leider gibt es keine Möglichkeit, die Sprache der App zu ändern, sorry. Wir sind uns dieser Anfrage bewusst, aber wir sind ein kleines Unternehmen und ordnungsgemäße Internationalisierungstests und -unterstützung erfordern mehr Ressourcen. Die Lokalisierung ist für uns im Moment etwas herausfordernd. Wir hoffen, dies in Zukunft zu tun.

### 1/5 — Geld

*2026-02-21*

Geld falle und nichts anderes Hände weg!!!!

**Developer response:** Es tut uns leid, dass Sie diese Erfahrung gemacht haben.

MyNetDiary bietet viele Funktionen kostenlos an, und Premium ist optional. Es gibt keine versteckten Gebühren – alle Abonnements werden klar über Apple abgewickelt und können dort jederzeit verwaltet oder gekündigt werden.

Bitte kontaktieren Sie uns unter support@mynetdiary.com, damit wir Ihren Fall prüfen und Ihnen weiterhelfen können 💚

### 1/5 — Stay Away

*2026-02-14, version 10.5*

Worst application in Apple Store.  Bugs makes app useless and customer support boils down to “reinstall “ to every inquiry.

### 1/5 — Cant be cancelled in your phone subscriptions

*2026-01-22*

This is one of those apps which once youve signed up will literally take a lot of money out monthly. Be warned. Its extremely expensive. In my opinion ludicrously expensive and not easy to cancel within their app. Despite what they say the subscription cannot be cancelled on your phone with other apple subscriptions. ONLY on their website.

**Developer response:** Thanks for sharing your experience — we’re sorry it felt frustrating.

How cancellation works depends on where the subscription was purchased. If it was bought via Apple, it can only be canceled in Apple ID → Subscriptions, since Apple controls billing. If it was purchased on our website (PayPal/Paddle), cancellation is done on the web.

We don’t charge without consent, and we aim to be transparent, but we understand this can be confusing. Your feedback is appreciated and helps us improve.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-01-21*

A fuir application nul à *** le service client incompétent ils prélèvent malgré une résiliation c honteux

**Developer response:** Nous sommes désolés d’apprendre votre mauvaise expérience. Nous aimerions vraiment comprendre ce qui s’est passé et vous aider à résoudre le problème.

### 5/5 — Health

*2026-08-07, version 10.29*

Update

### 5/5 — Great!!

*2026-07-26, version 10.27*

I found this app several years ago. It’s a great and accurate app

### 5/5 — Confessed Carboholic

*2026-07-09, version 10.23*

This app gave me the tools to change my approach to health from counting calories to counting protein. A simple change without the Keto budget!

### 5/5 — Helpful but needs help

*2026-06-20, version 10.21*

This app has been really helpful in starting my Keto diet, but there is one thing that would be really useful.  Can you fix it so that when creating a recipe, you can add the same ingredient more than once?  For instance when making a cake and frosting, salt might be in both the cake and the frosting but it won’t add it the 2nd time.  It makes your nutrients off and makes it hard to follow.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-04-26, version 10.13*

Easy to use, great way to stay focused and track progress.

### 5/5 — Logging-v-Not logging

*2026-04-24, version 10.13*

I ♥️MyNetDiary Genius. I enjoy being able to go back and see my results. I also enjoy logging my thoughts. I recommend MyCarbGenius or some type of app that works for you. Logging is better.

### 5/5 — Real weight loss!

*2026-04-18, version 10.9*

I have done WW for years but my weight loss had stalled.  I decided to try this app and go in different direction.  This app is not only BETTER than my WW app (and diet); it’s also so much less expensive.  (Compare $25/mo to $8/mo.)  I’ve used it for almost a year now and can honestly say my weight loss is no longer stalled!  I’ll be with Carb Genius on into maintenance!

### 5/5 — Fantastic features

*2026-04-14, version 10.9*

this app is being updated regularly. The programmers are actively involved. Their database of foods has too many entries that are empty of key nutritional info (seems like they were made by users), but overall its database is great. I like that i can track not just my macros, and protein but also my sugar based on types, the vitamins and minerals, and even other things like amino acids types.

### 5/5 — My go to

*2026-04-04, version 10.9*

Allows me to learn carb contents of the foods I eat and is integral in my health planning and maintenance

### 5/5 — perfect app

*2026-03-16, version 10.7*

love this app - it's everything i want & nothing i don't !
