Start with an emoji. Save a moment from your day. EMMO is a mood journal where you can draw your own emojis. Pick a face, write a line, or add a photo to capture something you want to remember. A happy moment, a hard afternoon, or an ordinary day: there's room for all of it. • Make your diary feel like you Choose an emoji you love or draw your own. Mix fonts, backgrounds, and stickers to make each page your own. Write a whole story or leave just a few words about how you feel. It's up to you. • Keep the pictures and the sounds Add photos, videos, and voice recordings to your entries: a favorite meal, a view from a trip, or a few words worth keeping. Browse your diary's photos, videos, and audio together to revisit those moments. • See your days come together Use the mood calendar and charts to look back on how you've been feeling. Open an entry to remember what happened that day. Little by little, your notes become a record of your life that you can return to. • Find a starting point with Pal Once you have your own Pal companion, tap it while writing for a gentle prompt, such as "Was there anything today that made you stop and look a little longer?" Start with one small moment and write as much or as little as you like. • Choose what stays just for you Set entries so only you can view them. Add an app passcode and use Face ID or Touch ID on supported devices to help protect access to your personal journal. • More ways to keep your memories Sync your diary and attachments with EMMO Cloud. You can also export the text of your entries as a PDF to save separately or print as your own paper journal. There are handy little tools, too: add to-dos to your entries and check them off, view your records in widgets, and revisit the places you've written about on a map. Pick an emoji for today. Start with one line. Pal and cloud sync require you to sign in. Some features and cloud service options require payment. See the app for details.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: 流年记 at none against EMMO's shown. 流年记 also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 78%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16). EMMO's advantage is ratings volume (30K vs 2) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. EMMO sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and 流年记 sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
EMMO holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: EMMO has 30K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of EMMO's written reviews are positive against 100% of 流年记's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
EMMO ships an update fortnightly, 流年记 every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on November 13, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
