Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: DiaryThreads at none against Doing Doing's shown. DiaryThreads also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and review sentiment (100% vs 86%). Doing Doing's advantage is ratings volume (97 vs 3) and monetization model (ad-supported vs freemium). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
