What Diarly's own pages show
Suits
- Apple users who want a journal stored on their devices and their own iCloud
- Writers who prefer plain-text Markdown entries they can export

Limits worth knowing
- Built only for Apple devices: there is no Windows, Android or web version.
- Sync between devices needs Premium and runs through iCloud; the free version keeps one journal on one device.
- Encryption covers the text of entries, needs Premium, and entries cannot be recovered if the encryption password is forgotten.
- The vendor's pricing page shows no amounts; the US App Store lists yearly Premium at both $24.99 and $29.99.
