HOW SURE ARE WE
Small app: combines its grossing ranks with ratings growth (14 new ratings a month on average since launch). Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2.6 times, so the range is wide. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

★★★★★ Not impressed tbh and sooo many options R locked because all you care about is money, meanwhile people trying to live.
★★★★★ What's worse, it pretends to give you a limited number of free lookups, but has multiple entries for the same food, and you can't even look at all of the options to compare.
★★★★★ So many features locked behind a pay wall that it is essentially unusable.

Bugs, things not working6%

14 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Not sure if it's a bug or people trying to fix what isn't broken, but it needs changing back.
★★★★★ Barcode scanner doesn't work in Australia.
★★★★★ I had the old version which i paid for years ago and it was excellent, it was more diabetic focused and was easier to navigate, this new one has lots of bugs, limited options and sometimes very imprecise weight portions.
Lost data, sync, backup6%

13 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ id add toast and egg to a meal, go on to add lunch and a snack and the toast had disappeared..it didn't encourage me to subscribe.
★★★★★ app used to be great this app used to be amazing when it was a one off payment or even free this app has massively gone down hill since it became a subscription product
★★★★★ Using backup and restore will not work for us as it shares the diary data which is not appropriate with 2 diabetics using it and needing to keep their own diary data.

★★★★★ Customer service is 5 star!
★★★★★ After a rocky start with the subscription, the staff at Carbs & Cals very quickly sorted this out for me, I'll update this review as I've used the app more, but so far customer support is excellent.

★★★★★Oct 10, 2026

brilliant app, it enables me to keep my diabetes and weight under control.

★★★★★Oct 6, 2026

I used the books in the past, so thought I would update to the app. It doesn't seem to have basic items, I often have to scan the label, but wish they updated the supermarket items, or basic grocery items more regularly. The targets need to be reviewed, I had to adjust the automated targets with my consultant.

★★★★★Oct 3, 2026

very frustrating that a lot of barcodes aren't recognised. lots of basic eating out meals and take away meals not listed.

★★★★★Sep 17, 2026

Could you please put my money back. Had no idea it was on a subscription. I don't use it, and I can't afford it. I am on benefits. Payment is currently pending
