What is an ENTRY file

ENTRY files mostly belong to Daylio/Day One. ENTRY files contain records of personal diary or journal entries. They store day-to-day notes using formats such as JSON, plist, or even ZIP archives.
Purpose and Functionality:
  • They serve as containers for diary entries used by apps like Daylio and Day One, recording personal events or moods.
  • Some versions hold data in structured formats (JSON or plist) that the app parses to display your entries neatly.
  • A few ENTRY files are used to store EPUB metadata, managed by tools like Calibre.
  • Functionality: When opened with the proper application, the file is read and its contained information is presented in a user-friendly format. You may also view the file with a text editor if it is stored as JSON or plist.

    How do you open ENTRY files?

    You need a suitable software like Daylio/Day One to open an ENTRY file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your ENTRY file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a ENTRY file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.
