Top pick for someone who wants the fullest free tier.
MyNetDiary has not paid to appear here and there is no affiliate link on this page. Every fact below was read off mynetdiary.com, apps.apple.com, play.google.com on 7 October 2026. This is a documentary review of published information rather than a hands-on test, and it has not been clinically reviewed.
Ratings and review signals
The storefront score, its full sample size, and any unusually useful critical review. These are third-party signals, not our verdict.
MyNetDiary claims over 2 million staff-verified foods drawn from USDA and NCC sources. AutoPilot adjusts your calorie budget at every weigh-in, on the free tier.
The full ledger
15 fields. Every one resolves to a value, a qualified answer, not offered, not disclosed, or not verified. None is left blank, and none is filled from a third party unless its note says so.
- Free tier
- Yes
The free tier includes barcode scanning, an unlimited food diary, a nutrition-label scanner, custom foods and recipes, exercise and water tracking, Apple Health, Apple Watch, Health Connect, a Wear OS app, and data export. The Play listing states there are no ads and no account requirement.
- Barcode scanning
- free
- Data export
- free
Listed among the free website functions as a consolidated yearly report to Excel. The apps also produce five PDF reports, and the web analysis section offers multi-day reports and a data export page. MyNetDiary separately documents importing from Cronometer, MyFitnessPal and Lose It!.
- Adaptive targets
- Yes, called AutoPilot
Basic AutoPilot is free and adjusts the daily calorie budget at every weigh-in, raising or lowering the weekly rate when you lose too slowly or too fast. Advanced AutoPilot is Premium and analyzes seven days of food, exercise and weight at weekly check-ins to track changes in energy needs over time.
- Micronutrients
- Up to 108 nutrients per entry, but only 8 are trackable free
Marketing and the Play listing put 108 nutrients in the free column. The company help article states the free version supports tracking eight named nutrients, that custom targets for any other nutrient require Premium, and that non-subscribers cannot display nutrient totals beyond macros on the dashboard. We record the conflict rather than resolving it.
- Price per month
- $8.99
Quoted in the company FAQ as $8.99 for the monthly subscription, with the website price stated as $9. A separate Premium Plus tier appears in the App Store at $14.99, with no billing period shown.
- Price per year
- $59.99
Company FAQ: a one-year subscription is available for $59.99, described as 17 cents a day, and $60 on the website. A Lifetime Premium tier exists but its price is not published in the documentation we read.
- Claimed database size
- Over 2 million staff-verified foods
The vendor's own claim. MyNetDiary states it reviews and updates 2,500 to 3,500 foods a day and builds on USDA and NCC sources, and it contrasts this with crowdsourced databases. Not independently audited.
- Macro tracking
- Yes, on the free tier
Free tracking covers eight nutrients in total: total fat, total carbs, protein, saturated fat, trans fat, sodium, dietary fiber and calcium.
- Recipe import
- paid
Recipes import by pasting text or by sharing a URL from a supported site or recipe app. The Play listing places recipe import in the Premium block.
- Photo logging
- paid
Called Meal Scan, matched against the staff-verified database. AI voice logging and AI restaurant menu scanning sit a tier higher, in Premium Plus. A separate nutrition-label scanner is free.
- Platforms
- iOS, Android, Web, watchOS, Wear OS
Premium is tied to the account rather than the platform, so it carries across iOS, Android and web. The Apple listing also covers iPadOS and visionOS.
- Device syncing
- Apple Health, Apple Watch, Health Connect, Samsung Health, Wear OS, Fitbit, Garmin, Withings
Apple Health, Apple Watch, Health Connect, Samsung Health and Wear OS are free. Fitbit, Garmin and Withings syncing is Premium. Blood glucose arrives indirectly through Apple Health or Health Connect rather than through a named CGM partner.
- Founded
- 2005
Founded in December 2005 in New Jersey by Sergey Oreshko and Vasili Smaliak, originally incorporated as 4Technologies Corporation. The Android package identifier still reads com.fourtechnologies.mynetdiary.ad.
- Ownership
- MyNetDiary Inc., privately held and self-funded
Renamed from 4Technologies Corporation in 2012. Headquartered in Boca Raton, Florida. The company states it employs 35 people including five registered dietitians and diabetes educators.
Where MyNetDiary contradicts itself
1 question on which the company publishes more than one answer. Every figure is shown, then the directory explains whether source precedence supports a current answer and how much the discrepancy matters. All were live on 7 October 2026.
How many nutrients a free account tracks
MyNetDiaryFeature decision3 published answers
Best current answer: Use 8 nutrients for the free tier
The company FAQ specifically lists what a free account tracks. That narrower product document takes precedence over broad homepage and store-listing claims of up to 108 nutrients per entry.
The verdict
MyNetDiary suits people who want barcode scanning, weekly target adjustment and data export without paying, but it does not suit anyone taking the 108-nutrient headline at face value, because the free tier tracks only eight.
Best for: Free everyday tracking with a real safety net for diabetes and GLP-1 users.
Flaws but not dealbreakers
The 108-nutrient headline does not survive the company's own help center, which says the free version tracks eight nutrients and gates targets and dashboard totals behind Premium. Exercise calories are added back at a hardcoded 50 percent for free users, a figure MyNetDiary admits has no validated equation behind it, and changing that percentage is itself a paid feature.
What was sourced
Every cell in the ledger above marked as a value or as a qualified answer was read off one of the 6 pages listed under sources, on . This confirms that the vendor published the claim; it does not independently prove the claim true. Nothing was taken from a review aggregator, an affiliate roundup or a third-party blog.
Nobody on this team installed MyNetDiary, subscribed to it, logged a meal in it or contacted it. What is above is what the company is willing to put in writing on its own properties, which is a narrower claim than whether the app works well.
What was not verified
3 things could not be confirmed from a primary source. They are listed here rather than filled with a plausible value. If you have first-hand information on any of them, the corrections address is in the footer.

- Minor
- Added an October 2 one-star report about lost frequent-food access and difficult food search to MyNetDiary's existing onboarding and free-access signal. These are three attributed reviews across two issues, not a representative sample, and no developer response was visible.MyNetDiary US App Store reviews
- Minor
- MyNetDiary's exact US score remains 4.81 and the count grew to 167,445. Two recent one-star reviewers said the onboarding flow made free food logging appear unavailable after they declined Premium; this is an attributed two-review purchase-access signal, not proof that the current free tier is unavailable.MyNetDiary US App Store listing and recent reviews
- Major
- MyNetDiary's review signal now records three recent one- and two-star reports that version 10.33 made core food logging difficult or unusable, including trouble copying or moving meals, finding prior foods and correcting automated entries. This is a small review pattern, not a representative sample; no developer response appears in the current storefront feed.MyNetDiary US App Store reviews

- MyNetDiary micronutrients recorded as conditional rather than as a value. The homepage and Play listing say 108 nutrients; the company FAQ says the free version tracks eight. Both are recorded and neither is resolved.
