An app called Carb Manager is being advocated on a Facebook group I’ve joined (Keto for women over 50). I’ve downloaded the free version and initial signs look positive, but before I transfer from my current app (which like most focuses on calories and has had to be adapted by me), wanted to see if others have any experience of it.

Thanks in advance.
 
Hi, I have no experience with the app.
But I use MyNetDiary, diabetes version. Costs a few pounds, but worth it I would say.
3 different options for carbs. Also log BG. Counts steps (iphone), distance on gps. Also other things like Blood pressure. Measurements, weight. A ton of stuff really.

You probably weren’t looking for suggestions. But u never know.

Me, I like it.

It tracks carbs, fat and calories (you can ignore the other two if you wish). It also tracks water intake. It's fairly customizable. I like the fact you can scan packages or input the information for your own recipes to add a particular food if it's not in their database. Only the paid version logs blood glucose so I use another app for that (it does track weight and exercise though though).

It also has good overall rating score on itunes.

Thanks both. I’m going to look into it further over the weekend. I don’t use a BG app so it’s just the food I’m looking to manage.
