Both are free to download. Multi Diary sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Tim Notes Blue asks for nothing beyond the download.
Multi Diary holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tim Notes Blue has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Multi Diary's written reviews are positive against 67% of Tim Notes Blue's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Multi Diary ships an update every 4 days, Tim Notes Blue every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
