Nutriva review
A free calorie diary with offline logging, macro tracking and optional cloud backup.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Nutriva is a calorie counter for Android and iPhone, with web access to backed-up diary information. It is aimed at people who want to log meals and monitor calories, protein, carbohydrates, fat and weight without paying for manual meal logging. Food entries can be created manually, and the app remembers favorites, recent foods and portions. Offline search and logging make it suitable for keeping a diary when a connection is unavailable; the description is also available in Portuguese, English and French.
The practical distinction is between on-device use and optional cloud features. Nutriva stores diary data on the device and can work offline. Google or Apple sign-in enables optional cloud backup, while the website provides access to backed-up diary information and data export. Weight history and trend charts add a way to follow changes over time. These options suit someone who wants a straightforward personal tracker with portability available, but who does not need an always-connected workflow.
Optional AI features can draft meal entries from text, voice or photos, but entries are reviewed before saving. That keeps the user involved in confirming what goes into the diary. Daily streaks, achievements and optional reminders provide habit prompts. Nutriva’s fit is strongest for solo users who value free manual tracking, macros, weight history and offline access. It is less suited to someone seeking verified barcode scanning or fully automatic meal logging; those needs may favor an app centered on those capabilities.
