What it does
MyNetDiary provides food journaling, nutrient information, macro tracking and a barcode scanner. The official site describes a staff-reviewed food database and free core tracking, with Premium and Premium Plus additions.
The free feature description is useful if barcode scanning and nutrient detail are your main requirements. The site explicitly includes those tools in its core diary, rather than presenting every convenient entry method as an upgrade.
Check the selected food and portion as you build the record. Photo, voice and other advanced features are described under Premium Plus, which is a separate access decision. The company also identifies PlateAI as a standalone app; it is not another name for the ordinary MyNetDiary diary. Choose the MyNetDiary diary when that is the recording workflow you want.
Strengths
- The official free feature set includes barcode scanning and detailed nutrient records.
- The diary can be used without an account at the starting stage described by the site.
