What is Diaro?

Diaro is a diary and notes app for Android, iPhone and iPad with a browser version called Diaro Online. Entries are organized with folders, tags and locations, can carry photos and a mood, and are searchable by keyword or date. The mobile apps store entries on the device and can be locked with a PIN or fingerprint. The paid Pro tier syncs devices and the web app through your own Dropbox account, adds export to PDF, DOCX and TXT, and removes ads.

Diaro has a free plan. Paid plans start at $8.99 per year (US App Store in-app purchase). See every plan
