Daynote

One page a day. If you have ever kept a diary for four days and then stopped, it was probably the app asking too much. Choose a folder, add tags, pick a template — and the day you meant to write about is still unwritten when you close it. Daynote has no folders, no tag hierarchies and no template to fill in. There is a date, and there are your words. Open it and the cursor is already sitting on the paper. There is no save button anywhere, because it saves as you write. â– Writing, within three seconds · One tap on Write today and you are typing · No save button and no cancel — what you type stays, even if you back out · Five moods and eight kinds of weather, one tap each. Skip them and the page still saves â– Stickers stick to sentences, not to the screen Put a star beside the thing that went well, draw a wave under the line you want to read again. Later you can raise the text size or rewrite an earlier sentence — the sticker travels with the words it belonged to. What you meant when you placed it survives. â– Change the theme, keep the diary Paper, Clay, Pixel, Pastel. The typeface, corners, shadows and writing paper all change together. A star you placed on Paper becomes a dotted star in Pixel — same spot, same angle, same count. The same diary in another edition. â– A drawer, not a report card Lookback never counts your streak or grades you on a completion rate. Twelve weeks of heat, the hours you tend to write in, the words you reach for most — and every one of those numbers opens the entry it came from. â– For your eyes only Lock it with a six-digit passcode or your fingerprint or face. While locked, even the widget shows nothing. Entries live on this device; there is no account and no sign-in. Back up to a file or to your own cloud whenever you want to. â– Only two things cost money Of the four themes, Paper is free and the other three come as a one-time bundle. Removing ads is also one-time. There is no subscription. All twenty papers and every sticker are free from the start. 한êµì–´ · English · 日本語

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Tocobi at none against Daynote's shown. Daynote's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
