This app worked when the OS was Marshmallow. It quit working on my Moto Turbo 2 just as soon as the new OS upgrade came in as Nauget fix it or give me my money back please. It crashes instantly.
After installing the OTA to Android N, this app refuses to start, crashing immediately after opening. Really disappointing for an app holding such important info.
Recently started crashing on my Droid Moto Z. Worked great for the past 4 years; now instant force close. Time to update compatibility.
Wont start up on Android N (7.0)
It works great but now I can't find the shortcut to launch it anymore.
It has some items. My issue is what about eating out? I went for Chinese the other day got orange chicken and egg drop soup.... I searched so long my chicken got cold and I gave up. Also I seached products I have at home, such as my roommates cereal just to see if it matched I couldn't even find Kellogg frosted flakes. Found lucky charms though.... I feel this makes it hard to make my diabetes quick and easy to deal with.
Can I just come for of carb/calorie burning counter of the exercise, to help work out how much or sugar level will drop after exercise? That would be VERY AWESOME if you could figure out a way of helping us with the exercise side of sugar control a little more :-)
Excellent application. Very helpful for diabetes management. Previous comment about glycemic index, should be for more robust program. For a free program these guys did a terrific job.
Latest hba1c..5.7, thanks to using this app. Makes everything so much easiers. Would not have been able to live normally without this. Thank you!
Too detailed with foods I never heard off and very difficult to find basic food like frozen corn...
I encounter several peoblems with app: page 'total selection' does not display properly, the 'find next' button in log does not work and the app shuts down unexpectedly frequently. If this could be fixed would be great. Otjerwise the best app i could find for the purpose of cointing carbs.
The app is okay, and has a decent carb list, but no glycemic index. The keywords have glycemic index listed, but it's not there. Would be better (and not lying) if the gylcemic index and loads were available.
Every item put it had to find my own carbs to input. Even then couldn't figure out how to operate the app and no help button or auto.walk through at the beginning. Useless. Faster for me to look at all the packages.
Unable to read the food totals, carbs, protein, etc. It starts to small. Other than that semi useful.
Would be helpful to have a calculator and the ability to add multiple items together for a meal. Currently, items can only be selected one at a time. Also, support for US users would be nice. We don't don't use the same values for blood glucose and so on.
Uninstalled as the food lists would be irrelevant in Britain.
Love how it breaks food down to a grahm and carbs to the desmail. One bug I found when star a food not all will let me and two times they reset completely
App crashed on first open. Had trouble with backspacing in the search. That being said this app has great info and tools. I recommend it!!!
No basic foods listed
Its amazing and i can keep my sugars level now
Can not find even the most common foods in carb counter what use is it
Hard to figure out!
i love this app. i was recently put on insulin and this app is prefect for keeping log of everything, from food you eat(if its not on the list you can enter and create the food), workout, blood sugar levels, and even create the insulin meds and what dose you need. love love love this app. the only beef i have is that sometimes i will enter my foods and the will not save the carb value i have assigned it in the log. fix this issues and i will rate 5 stars.
This app is very confusing and does not have the ability to add your food items. Waste of time do not use this app.
I found it hard to find standard foods like Kent pumpkin, a potato that wasn't peeled and instant coffee with white and one
It's a simple but the most useful app for calculating carbohydrates. The only problem is that back up and restore features do not work at all.
