Boba Buddy is a mobile app designed to help users make informed decisions about their boba tea orders by providing ratings, comments, and personalized recommendations for drinks at boba shops. This gives an average rating for each drink that reflects the quality of that drink. The app simplifies the decision-making process, allowing users to quickly choose a drink they’ll love based on reliable feedback from the community. The personalized recommendations are unique for each user, by accounting for the drinks they’ve rated before and showing drinks that users similar to them liked.

"I used to get the same boba milk tea from the same store everyday, until boba buddy recommended me to try the grass jelly milk tea from another store, and that has become my new favorite drink!"- Tony
"I love boba drinks and often give recommendations to my friends on where to go and what to get. I like to write reviews on Google Maps, but I find my detailed reviews of each drink just gets lost in the pile of other generic reviews. I found that with Boba Buddy, I can review each drink and even upload photos for them, and I feel very satisfied that these comments are really helping others choose their next drink."- Penny
