Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Text Diary at 4.5 against Filing Cabinet's 3.0. Text Diary also leads on ratings volume (6 vs 1). Filing Cabinet's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
