This is the unfortunately down-side of having a closed device with proprietary software - you can't leave it up to others to develop additional apps.

But seeing as how they threw in a Sketch app in 1.9.6, it wouldn't seem to be much of a stretch to provide a simple text note-taking app. Maybe that would be sufficient for what you want, and it might be helpful in general.

Have you considered hand-writing your diary using the Sketch app?
Theres an idea... hand writing recognigtion... possible here?
