■ is ridiculously easy to use: most of the time the user has to just press a single button.
■ doesn’t give your just numbers or graphs (about your weight, body shape, etc). It also shows (green = good, red = bad) how good these numbers are in the user’s particular case.
So, the user can decide how much effort to put towards exercise and weight loss.
■ includes ‘People’s Choice weight recommendation’, which takes into consideration age, gender, and peer’s perception (in addition to user’s height and weight).
■ includes very informative personalized recommendations and has great integration between graphs and health markers.

I switched to LiveStrong last month because of the lack of a website/syching. Now I might switch back.

Plus they have supporting website. And latest version of the app seems to take care of all bugs. Website is kinda nice and free too: http://pertrainer.com
I think they have import from iFitness, but haven’t tried it yet. They also pretty good with response to support requests and seem to be improving the app constantly.

I use it in conjunction with iFitness and it pretty much gets rid of a personal trainer. Check it out: RepTrainer at http://www.chezinteractive.com
