Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Emoji Diary at none against Eiary's 2. Emoji Diary also leads on ratings volume (17 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). Eiary's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs every 5 weeks) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
