In their own words
Diaro
Diaro is a freemium diary, journal, notes, and mood-tracking app for recording activities, experiences, thoughts, and ideas. Entries can be searched by keyword and filtered by date, tags, folder, or location. The app supports media attachments, a privacy lock, and Android, iOS, and web access. Diaro Online imports backup files, Evernote data, and DayOne data, and exports entries to PDF, DOCX, or TXT; filtered exports can include only matching entries. Dropbox synchronization links the mobile app with the browser version and is available to PRO users. The Free plan costs nothing for basic diary and journal use. Google Play lists ads and in-app purchases. The homepage says Diaro is available in 30+ languages, and the FAQ says there is no daily entry limit. On iOS, a security code can be required at launch. The privacy policy says mobile private content stays on the device, while website content is stored in Dropbox.
