Reviews for Carbon - Macro Coach & Tracker

Have had it for a while great while it works, I constantly get logged out and have to uninstall my app. I’m reaching out to support and they just have me uninstall the app. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t but im paying $10 a month for an app that partially works Updated to 4 […]

Came back to macros after not tracking at all during the pandemic and this app is by far the best one I’ve tried. I trust the knowledge behind the macro ratios and they are consistent with what I’ve done in the past, but it allows me to track without having to do the math myself. […]

So, I posted a review based on initial review and issues. The developer reached out a few days after and they helped fix some of the issues but not all of them. (I tried to update it but my revuew disapprared) Anyway, I do like many aspects of this app. I really think they shld […]

Great app. Unlike all the tracking apps, it actively adjusts macros every week according to your personal metabolism. It is the next best thing to an actual coach at a fraction of the price. I have lost 35 pounds in 6 months eating 2800 calories a day. I have a ton of flexibility in what […]

This app is better than any coaching I’ve had in the past. I’ve learned how to pick foods that are filling when my calories are lower so that i don’t go over my macro targets as easily. I’ve been consistently losing weight, very slowly, but consistently. I also love that i have learned how to […]

i feel like this app makes tracking much more simple compared to the likes of my fitness pal. Additionally I find that I use it more often perhaps because I pay for it? Not sure just know im sticking to it more than I ever did mfp. Its interesting after tracking your food to see […]

This is app is great! It’s not a tracker, it’s a coach. It helps take the guess work out of macro and calorie counting while also allowing some flexibility. The best thing about this app besides the coach, is the fact that you’re able to add your own custom foods and meals into the app […]

It’s an okay app. I like the ease of logging foods in, because unlike myfitnesspal, users cant flood the search results with their own sloppily written-in foods. The main downside for me is that I’d really like to be able to track my micronutrients as well. The app only allows you to look at the […]

It’s a good app, especially if your training is relatively flat over time. If your training is gradually increasing in intensity/duration and you are looking for an app to learn those changes and adapt to them, Carbon doesn’t seem to do it. For example I ate 150 daily calories over the recommendation for a week, […]

pretty good, I like the idea of having dynamic calorie and macro targets to “dial in” the nutrition. Also, tracking macros and calories is a great idea and this seems to be one of the best at doing it. I think a more robust/intuitive way of setting your initial goal/targets is needed. E.g., some small […]

I’m two months in and I made a full switch from MFP. I get to choose which high day I want and it fixes the macros for all other days, and the coach gave me the exact numbers I needed after the first week. I couldn’t make the switch from MFP at first because I’ve […]

I love this app! It has been life changing. Previously I was paying for a coach & MyFitnessPal. This gave me the option of both and for way cheaper! The app is extremely easy to use. And it takes out all the guess work! Granted it will take a few weeks to learn your body. […]

Loving this app so far, now that I’m consistently using it. Yes, you may need to enter some foods that are not in the database yet, but that means you can ensure the nutrition information is correct (a major issue I’ve found with MFP; having such a large database built by users has allowed a […]

3 months of using the app combined with increased activity has helped me with my cut and lose 20 lbs! I am going to maintaince now and using the app to keep me there! I love this more than my fitness pal because I’m not tempted to use “calories burned” through exercise to eat more […]

Want to love but I eat a wide variety of foods and had a hard time finding most in the database. I’ve added the majority of the foods myself and need to separately look up ingredients on packages or Google to create them. Seems less comprehensive than MyFitnessPal for a lot of “international” foods, takeout […]

The single most effective tool I’ve ever found to help me lose weight and keep it off. They still need to add more data for the barcode scanner since things still don’t always pop up, but if you’re having issues finding the right amount of calories to lose weight this will help, you just have […]

I worked with a nutrition coach for a year at $125 monthly. Progress wasn’t always made and I was burned out. I found out about Carbon on Instagram and decided to give it a try. Let me tell you, this is NOT a simple food tracker. It is a smart coach that will give you […]

I love the functionality of the app and how it is all set up. However, how can you put a product out in the market, charge top dollar and out of 10 products I scan, all of them have the wrong nutritional information?!?! Dr.Layne and team, please fix this, it is annoying and frustrating. Get […]

I’ve been using the app for about a month so far. The check in thing is cool and I feel like the macro targets are really spot on for me. The only annoying thing is the food search is pretty bad. Like, I will type the exact name and it won’t pop up. To the […]

I’m sure this app works for some people, but it didn’t work for me. I stayed consistent for a long time and showed absolutely no progress. When that happened, the app would decrease my calories. That makes sense, absolutely. But when the app takes you down to 1200 calories and requires you to still eat […]
