Also, you don’t have to worry about if someone has your phone as these apps let you password protect your diaries. So that your entries will remain private always.

Vidiary
Vidiary is a fairly simple video diary app for Android that you can use. The app is just focused on recording your video diary entries and doesn’t have any other features in it except password protecting your journal. It allows you to add a title and description to the video diary and organize your video diary entries in date wise manner. Also, gives you two choices that you can either record a video for your entry or you can import a video file from gallery and attach it to your diary entry. However, the diary entries that you record in it are visible in gallery. So, if you are okay with this fact, then you are good to go. If not, then you may consider hiding videos files from your phone.
The first step to use this app is to set a password to your diary. After that, you can start using this app in its full glory. You can add a diary entry, give it a name, type a description for it and then tap on the camera icon that it shows.
