Never forget what you ordered. Boba Buddy is for anyone who’s ever stared at a menu and thought, I know I loved something here last time… what was it? Find shops near you or search by name, then save a quick note for each visit - your go-to order, sweetness level, toppings, whatever helps. Add a photo if that’s easier than typing. Rate places you liked (or didn’t), and scroll through all your notes when you’re craving something specific. If you want your stuff on more than one phone, you can sign in and sync -totally optional. Less guessing, more drinking what you actually want.
