What's the best iOS app for counting calories?

The more automagical it is the better (as in utilizing pictures, indexed restaurant menus, etc.)

Good based on their large database of food products. (User generated)

Yeah, this is the best. The hard truth is, if you want to be accurate, there really aren't any shortcuts. Best bet is making all your food yourself or only eating out at trusted places.

Agree with MyFitnessPal as well - their database and scanning of available food products is the best I have used.

Fitbit App (new release)

Now with better run tracking, mapping, and logging

Alternatively, because I also track my steps on FitBit, I've used their calorie tracking as well so I can see the net effect of my burn vs. intake.

Yeah, if you own a Fitbit device combining both calorie expenditure and intake is really great way to go.

They have much more foods than Fitbit does, and it integrates with Fitbit (and many other devices, but I use the Fitbit integration) to get your calorie expenditure and adjusts your daily calorie allotment accordingly.
