CarbsControl Carb Tracker for Android
It has some bugs that occasionally pop up but I can work around them. Learning to use the app was like learning a new level in angry birds. That was fun for me because it kept me interested. With that said, I am happy I have it because it is a useful tool that helps me to eat healthy.
I want my money back! Was using the PC version. This app doesn't use info from website. Difficult to see on my new android phone. It is a major disappointment for a new diabetic. :-(
Difficult to use without proper I structures. Seemingly no sync with the PC version. No response to a question in this regard. Will now unintelligible and use a better, free, syncing app.
I like the easr of use but I wish they would update the restaurant and food listings. Also there is a glitch when reviewing the meal details and trying to edit an entry. Breakfast and lunch is flipped as is dinner and snacks. So you can do a work around
This is the first app I've found that is simple, quick and focuses on carb intake. Perfect for a ketogenic diet.
Fast food lookup, multiple volume types to log with and log can be revised. Simple and spot on what I need.
This is a great app. It's the only I could find that tracks carbs by meal,which is what diabetics need!
I depend on this app to calculate my insulin dosage each meal. A big help.
Terrible keeps miscalculating and stopping!
Just started using this app but so far so good. It has a lot of things that I can look up automatically but also allows me to enter specific things that meet my needs
The restaurant info isn't even close! Off by as much as 20 carbs! Too big a difference to trust this app on anything. Deleting it!
Doesn't work! ! Can't even logged my food. No customer service contacted me back to help me out
Have useful features, but not user friendly. Difficult to log meals, app constantly made the log items so small. Could not access them again
Very good, except could use updated database of restaurants and brands.
It's a little confusing. Don't make a mistake, you'll never delete just one entry. Finding some common foods but not part of a restaurant, isn't easy.
Part of my food list cannot be seen. I can only see the top of the wording. Cannot see complete entry.
I have been using this application to help control my blood sugar level. As a type 1 diabetic I need my carb count when I eat anything. It is also helpful to track weight loss or gain while dieting. I used a carb control meter pei or to the carb control app.
When I tap on a food to go back and correct errors, what appears is NOT the food I tapped.
I like the app, but cannot see my meals listed
This is the first app I've found that is simple, quick and focuses on carb intake. Perfect for a ketogenic diet.
This app helps me maintain my glucose control easily and accurately while enabling me to have a historical record at my fingertips.
A great way to track my carbs. I especially like being able to add custom items and save them to favorites.
Good carb tracker but would be nice to be able to track activity.
Fast food lookup, multiple volume types to log with and log can be revised. Simple and spot on what I need.
I wish I hadn't paid for this app and now it's too late to get a refund! It crashes every time you try to delete something and won't let you put in a partial serving so you have to adjust things and make custom foods just to have half a serving of something
I use it at every meal to keep my sugar under control. It works very well for me
Terrible keeps miscalculating and stopping!
Very helpful to manage you diet and diabetes.
I thought I could get a grocery list of low carb foods. I'm disappointed
Love this app allows me to check restaurant menu's before going
Wonderful app for tracking a diet. Easy to use. Don't mess it up with updates and "improvements."
Always closes when I try to delete an entry. Very annoying
Keep getting error message when trying to delete a food entry. Ugh!
However, I would like to see a Barcode scanner with this app.
Many name brands not listed, doesn't allow saving of quick entry foods as favorites and not able to copy them for the next day. No scanner. App needs big improvement.
This app does everything I am looking for in tracking and planning meals and snacks. The food database is very good - even including Pamela 's gluten free breads. Would like to see them make the multi - sync feature they talk about on their website actually available. Also, would like to see them make fractional shares of "servings" available when entering meals.
I use this all the time. Its quick and easy to keep track of what I eat. It has a large database that seems fairly accurate. You can add things with info from the label there are not already in the database. You can give a complicated dish a name, add all the ingredients, and save it in your favorites. You can change an item in the database by creating a new corrected item in your favorites.
App worked great then when my OS upgraded to lollipop it stopped working! I can no longer search for basic foods like apples! Please fix. Samsung S5. Only app that I have ever purchased.
Good as is but needs: way to save quick and custom items to favorites; fewer steps to add to log; more complete database for foods and brands; capability to scan items into favorites and food database.

Don't the producers ever check their products for bugs? There is so many problem to it that makes me really pissed off. This isn't a free app. No trial either. Pay to download and full of problems. I have sent so many faulty reports!
