Referring to the current day.
Contexto cultural
In Iran, the day starts at sunrise, but the official calendar date changes at midnight. However, in casual conversation, 'امروز' usually refers to the period from waking up until going to sleep. The concept of 'Emruz' is central to the 'Carpe Diem' philosophy of poets like Khayyam and Hafez, who contrast it with the 'unreliable tomorrow'. When making plans 'today', Iranians often use 'Inshallah' (God willing) to acknowledge that plans can change.
Drop the Preposition
Never say 'in today'. Just say 'today'.
Tense Matters
If you use 'امروز' with a past tense verb, it implies the action happened earlier this morning.
