EVRUNE vs Daynote

EVRUNE is a personal journal app for recording your thoughts and your day through one question each day. Read a new question every day and write down whatever comes to mind. As each entry builds, it becomes your own book to revisit over time. Find past entries in the calendar and compare answers written on the same date in different years. Entries are stored on your device by default. If you choose, you can manually back up and restore them with iCloud. EVRUNE supports Light, Dark, and System appearance modes and is available in multiple languages. Free users can write up to 250 characters per day. With an EVRUNE Premium 30-day pass, you can write up to 1,000 characters per day.

One date, several years, one page. Daynote is a 3-year and 5-year diary. Open today's page and you'll see what you wrote on this same date last year, and the year before, right there with today. Every time you write a few lines, you also get to read who you were a year ago. ■ 3 years · 5 years · one day · Switch between the 3-year, 5-year and one-page-a-day views at the top of the home screen.
