Carb Manager—Keto Diet Tracker App Reviews

Great! Easy no fuss carb counter.

Just started a Keto diet and this app has been really instrumental in helping me get the hang of ultra low-carb, especially as a vegetarian with fewer low-carb choices. Only question I have is why it deducts only fiber, and not sugar alcohols, in order to calculate net carbs. That might have more to do with my beginners understanding of Keto and less to do with the app, but throwing it out there to the app designers, for what its worth. Thanks, Carb Manager! Viva low carb!

Great app! I like the scan function, but not all items are recognized. Helps me keep my numbers in range and in ketosis.

I really love this app. I used it previously when I was trying a low carb diet. Just recently Ive become Vegan (high carb, low fat). I still use this app because I prefer it to Fitness Pal.

Ive only started using the app and it is so poorly designed I have doubts Ill continue. The interface is confusing and non-intuitive and it takes a dozen clicks to log a simple entry. Free apps will do the same thing only better.

The tracker,itself, is pretty good. I like the fact that it is detailed and uses a pie chart. What I do not like is the fact to use it with your Health app, add friends, and track your water intake you need to pay a premium of $19.99/annually. One of the perks (for me) of having a tracker is having friends as accountability partners and cheerleaders. Without this service, it is only a mediocre app. I truly couldnt care less about the water tracking, but I think people should know. If these things were included with the purchase of the app, Id definitely raise the ratings. I smell a new update coming out...

This is exactly the app I was looking for. Its easy to use and the layout is excellent. My wife and I both use and enjoy comparing our pie charts.

I was quite happy with this until I accidently pushed the "Premium" button and it wont go back. So the app is useless -- good thing it is only $2.99. What a horrible "bait and switch" feature. Buy something else!!!!

What happened to Carb Manager? It stopped working I even deleted it and reinstalled it - it acts like its going to sync then it just freezes up - I depend on this app a lot but do over a month now I cannot use it So disappointed

Absolutely great ! This app is wonderful for tracking your carb intake

I really appreciate that there are several options for serving sizes/amounts on the foods. So far I havent found anything that isnt in the database.

I think this app is fabulous! Its everything I wanted. Had to contact Customer Service because I was having trouble signing in but they got back to me in less than 24 hours with a resolution. I purchased the premium app and Im glad I did. I used the non-premium for awhile but wanted the extras in premium. There are a couple things I noticed that I hope they "catch up" on. As mentioned by another reviewer the search feature does not present an alphabetized list and sometimes I have to switch around word order to find. However, once you put foods in your favorites they are alphabetized. In addition, the water feature is only in 8 oz increments. As I often drink 1/2 cups or 12 oz they should really change this to an ounce feature, or at least tap twice on the glass. Once for 4 oz twice for 8 oz. minor details. PC sync is also very nice. I really like the analyze feature and supplements categories although my supplements dont come up in bar scan and I had to put them in as custom foods. Bar scan is great feature. Its found things I could not find on the search feature right away. Search feature also has numerous quantity selections to choose from so however I measure foods or decide on portions Ive never had trouble finding (although sometimes I need to squint to see what the portion size says if its a really long description).

This little app has made it easy for me to manage my intake of carbohydrates throughout the day.

Ive used Carb Manager every day for more than two years and it is a marvel at assisting in controlling calories and carbs. Go "premium" and it syncs perfectly across all your devices.

This is a great app, live the pie chart for my daily goals. I also love the barcode scanner. I do wish lists were in alphabetical order though.

Love this app. Love being able to track carb daily totals. Wish the database was a little easier to interact with. Also wish it was a little more populated.

Im a newbie to the low carb approach, but so far the app has done all that I need .

Just started using the app a day or so ago and I LOVE it thus far!!! Its better than any other carb counting app Ive used; even Atkins. They have a TON of exercises already stored in the app. It gives you a daily analysis to let you know how you did for the day. The scanner actually works! I love it so much that I went ahead and bought the annual app for $19.99!

The best I have used. Think Ive tried almost every app.

The good: keeps good track of carbs, plus calories, fat, fiber, etc. The charts are nice. I like the pie chart and that the overview tells what percentage of your carb goal youve had that day. The bad: no way to correct mistakes you might make when entering custom foods. You cant even delete an entry! The only way to get the right info into the app after youve saved, is to make a whole new entry and ignore the incorrect one. This is a pretty ridiculous oversight! Maybe I just havent figured out how to do it yet, but I cannot find a way to edit the custom food list. It does allow you to edit/delete other things, but not this VERY important one! Also, you must type the food youre searching for EXACTLY, or it wont find it. As others have said, the lists of foods can be quite cumbersome and are time consuming to navigate. The scanner hasnt worked for any of the foods that Ive tried scanning--I guess there are only certain brands this works with?
