## Description

Borbalo is a user-friendly app designed specifically for drivers in Georgia. It helps you manage all your traffic fines including patrol, video, and parking tickets by providing timely notifications about deadlines and discounts. Easily view details like the offense location, exact time, and legal article related to the fine.

Additionally, Borbalo allows quick payment for zonal parking in just three steps and the purchase of long-term parking passes for major cities such as Tbilisi, Batumi, Kutaisi, and Gori. It features an archive for year-long payment records and a summary dashboard showing your monthly fines expenditure. With its Automatic Payments system, you can get the best prices by paying fines or purchasing permits automatically on the last discount day. Borbalo integrates official data directly from the Georgian Ministry of Internal Affairs and city halls, ensuring accurate and up-to-date information without being affiliated with any government entity.

## Review summary

Most reviews skew negative, highlighting data reliability and user experience issues. Common complaints include scanner and app function failures, inaccurate or missing fines and sensor data, excessive ads and push notifications, and problematic billing (double charges, trial cancellation). Users also report difficulty in navigation, and weak background behavior that interrupts other media. However, a subset praises the app's driving-oriented features and overall value, with notes that it has unique capabilities and is well-suited for car users, especially in Georgia/Tbilisi.

### Pros

- Strong positive sentiment in reviews like 'The Best Or Nothing!' and 'the best app at the moment'
- Nice app with unique features
- Driver-focused utility; appreciated by car owners and useful for vehicle users (especially in Georgia)
- Perceived good value for money

### Cons

- Ads and promotional notifications are excessive and hard to disable
- Billing issues: double charges on first payment, trial restrictions, and difficulties canceling subscriptions
- Data accuracy problems: some fines not shown, cameras not displaying fines, and fuel/consumption data being incorrect
- Stability and background behavior issues: scanner may not work; app not reliably running in background and can interfere with other audio (YouTube/Maps)
- Navigation and usability concerns: app can be hard to navigate; regional updates (e.g., Kakheti highway) are lacking
