# Calorie Counter + vs Nutritrack

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Calorie Counter + at 78% against Nutritrack's 33%. Calorie Counter + also leads on rating (4.8 vs 3.5) and monetization model (freemium vs subscription). Nutritrack's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 16.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Calorie Counter + sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and Nutritrack sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Calorie Counter + holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Calorie Counter + has 26K ratings behind it against 363, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 78% of Calorie Counter +'s written reviews are positive against 33% of Nutritrack's.

Calorie Counter + ships an update fortnightly, Nutritrack monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
