Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: DayOne at 4.7 against SGA's 4.0. DayOne also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (7 vs 1). SGA's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DayOne sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. SGA asks for nothing beyond the download.
DayOne holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DayOne has 7 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
SGA ships an update every 6 weeks, DayOne every 10 days. Both last shipped on October 30, 2026.
