This food tracker app allows you to track calories in and calories out by logging food intake and exercise. You can also track nutrition by day or week (% fat, carbs, protein; grams of sugar, etc.). You can set a weight loss goal and the app calculates how many calories you should take in each day in order to reach your goal.
The food tracker has a database of calorie counts including supermarket and restaurant items. I was surprised that some popular items (e.g., Newman's Own brand) were not included. But you can add your own items if you know the nutritional information. I also wish that the search function was more sophisticated--it doesn't have auto-fill and it doesn't correct common mistakes.
You can also create a LoseIt.com account to back up data, view detailed reports, share with friends, etc.
