Carb counting app recommendations

[AnnieEcowarrior]

I went looking for a carb counting app today and there seem to be loads. Ideally I’d like one that I can photograph nutrition labels (because they are hard to read), be able to add a recipe once you’ve worked it out and it magically stores the info for another day.

I’d be very grateful for your recommendations
Thank you.

I use MyFitnessPal and it’s ok for that, you can add full meals and recipes, and scanning barcodes

I use an app called carbs & cals it’s brilliant I’ve gone from having almost 300g of carbs per day to around half that thanks to that app

I use Nutracheck, however looked at a few of the usual suspects. All just my opinion, but:

Nutracheck - 1 week free trial, then £35 for first year (when I signed up). UK specific database, really easy to use, but doesn't do micronutrient values for foods if that's important.

Chronometer - Can be used for free, £50 per year if you want premium version. Provides loads of detail on foods, down to micronutrients I'd never heard of. I found the app clunky and awkward, website is reportedly better but didn't try it.

MyFitnessPal - Can be used free, but some feature are premium only. It's £70-80 for premium. Food database is not always easy to find UK items, plus accuracy is polluted by user-added entries. That said, decent all round app and the best free option in my opinion, but expensive if you want premium features.
