Carbs & Cals: Diet & Diabetes

After installing the update, without warning I now have to pay to view certain foods which happen to be the foods I search frequently. This app has helped immensely with managing my son’s type 1 diabetes but it’s useless now. Really you guys should be charging new sign ups not current members.

I bought this a few years ago and it’s been invaluable. Really excellent - helped me get control of my diet and diabetes. It told me there was an upgrade today (6 Dec 2021) - and assured me all my data would be brought over. However: I keep getting asked if I’d like to upgrade and pay monthly, and where I had particular meals set up, it now says some of the ingredients are ‘premium’ only so I can’t view my own regular meals (unless I recreate them myself). Also, the targets are fiddly to use with rotten sliders that twitch as you let go (took me 5 attempts to dry ‘sat fat to 11g’) - and all my history is gone! (It did warn me but I saw that note AFTER I’d updated). Also, you can’t seem to view more than one nutrient for the whole day or meal (Eg as a diabetic with other conditions to manage, I need to flick between my nutrients quickly tp check I am on or off track to make meal decisions quickly - it seems you can log 5 nutrients and see them totalize, but can only view one at a time). The interface looks nice - but this was a massive change I was not expecting and lost a load of features and data - be careful upgrading. I’ve no idea if these features are in the premium edition - but I BOUGHT this app already at full price with the book too .. why am I now being asked for monthly payments to maintain what I already bought? Update: used it another 20 mins - you can’t put fractional portions in (for some foods I didn’t have a weight, I just put ‘1’ for the portion - and would do .33 .25 .75 or .5 or 1 etc. You can only do whole numbers or half and quarter. Also, it lost a load of my custom foods and meals. A lot is there, but I’ve lost all my protein powders and nutrition boosters and some recipes/meals. There is a mix of old and new still there and a mix of old and new gone - so I’ve no idea what it’s lost.. until I go to use my regular items. :/ I will continue to try the app - as this has really helped me control, lose weight, maintain health and manage my conditions. This was NOT a smooth ‘upgrade.’

... lost 5 pounds in 4 weeks. The only complaint I have, I cannot save my custom created meals after giving it a name, hence 4 stars only.

I bought this app as it was recommended elsewhere and I'm trying to lose weight. I have found that a lot of the foods I want to register are not found. I don't even use it. It was a waste of my money.

Doesn't open and won't work - pretty ridiculous after a 3-year wait for an update.. disappointing!! Please fix ASAP!

Can no longer download the picture. Please fix!

This app. Is a "must have" for any diabetic! Great tool for restaurant, where you cannot weight your food!

Designed to support people with type one diabetes and you’re trying to charge them premium rates. You should be ashamed of yourselves

It’s good because. I have tipe one diabetes it helps me to understand how to control it my mum and dad have cabs and Cals to they understand how to use it now I love this app lots of love Jasmine

I am a type 1 diabetic who lives in the UK and I think that Having foods from British stores would be beneficial to other British diabetics because it is very hard for me to find what I’m looking for in the app. And I am aware that they might have the same thing in another store I would prefer it to be more accurate and that the app was made in America or so I’ve been told
