Hello- I am new to this app however it does not appear to take out fiber from total carbohydrates when tracking. Is this accurate or am I looking at it wrong?

    you are correct. You need to do the subtraction yourself to get "net carbs"

    Total carbs includes fibre.... Why would it be removed?

    If you want to track net carbs (total carbs - fibre) , find net carb entries in the database or make your own if you can't find one for the food you are eating.
