I use myfitness pal and find it very useful to track carbs. I haven't found any food yet that it has been unable to locate and it's great having brand names and restaurant menu items so I can check how high things are and then make wise choices. It was free and I've found it superior to the carbs and cals app that cost me £3.99. I found that very limited on choices. Eg houmous - I think there were two choices whereas myfitnesspal is loaded with loads of brand choices so you have exact calculations.

I use Myfitnesspal and find it to be pretty good where as my wife uses an App called Fat Secrets (free) and she swears by it.
 
Thanks everyone... Silly me already had that app... Just wasn't using it! Been told to try 30g of carbs per day to shift 3 stone... Eeeks already not eating carb food but now just need to learn what veg etc it's hiding in. Counting carbs is a new one on me.
