# Nutrition Tracker · vs Groot Nutrition

The clearest difference is rating: Nutrition Tracker · at 4.6 against Groot Nutrition's 3.5. Nutrition Tracker · also leads on ratings volume (1.1K vs 8). Groot Nutrition's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (25% vs 11%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Nutrition Tracker · sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days and Groot Nutrition sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $19.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Nutrition Tracker · holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Nutrition Tracker · has 1.1K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 11% of Nutrition Tracker ·'s written reviews are positive against 25% of Groot Nutrition's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Nutrition Tracker · ships an update every 2 weeks, Groot Nutrition every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
