  • Great app but some crashes on certain achievements

    Really like to use it to practice but I’ve noticed sometimes it crashes on what I can guess is an achievement being rewarded. Reason for my guess is it usually happens when I’m on a streak and I know I got it right and it’s right when I press enter. Not a big deal but lose all progress from that session when it crashes as I noticed it doesn’t seem to save the stats when it crashes.
  • Please update

    Having some recent problems with the app start to use it and it just cancels out my progress I use this app every day and it is probably the best Spanish app please help !

  • Best app for practicing Spanish verbs

    This app is incredible and deserves a higher place in the App Store. It has a clean user interface, it works amazingly well, and it does exactly what it says it will do.

    I can't figure out how to pay for it. The developers may need to enable that feature still but I will happily do so when I can.

    I am preparing for the DELE exam this fall. This is helping me dial in the verbs which makes everything else fall into place.
  • Excellent!

    Love this app, I had been looking for an app exactly like this. This is exactly the kind of practice I was lacking in my efforts to learn Spanish.

    One bug I’ve noticed: when I close the app, it keeps resetting my level to an absolute beginner and only shows me the present tense. A bit frustrating, but should be an easy fix.

    Can’t wait to keep using this app!
  • This app REALLY teaches!!

    Finally! After downloading dozens of apps to practice Spanish verb conjugations, this is the only app that teaches you to “think” in conjugation. You are given complete sentences, so you are conjugating in context and not as just an academic exercise. I love that the setting options allow me to select all the verbs at my level, or just a specific one or two or ten to work on. In the same way, I can select what tenses I want to work on: any or all! Other reviewers have said this app is a benefit for intermediate and advance learners, but even as a beginner, I am finding that this app has been the very best, and my favorite, teaching tool. Muchísimas gracias!!
  • Could Be Great! But...

    I wish there were some real directions for performing the actions described in the description, like selecting verbs you wish to practice, then returning to whatever you've applied in settings.

    Or perhaps that is a paid version? Also I'm curious why "it" as an object to an action is used so predominantly when you're studying one verb.

    I do enjoy the challenge I'm able to set for myself based on the tenses I wish to practice. And there is a rapid fire quality to the practice that I enjoy.

    Personally, I'd love different graphics, maybe a little more colorful. I find it a tad bit boring to look at. And again, more explicit directions on how to do things!
  • Best Language Learning App

    This app is amazing! It’s really helped me practice my verb conjugations. I’d recommend this app to anybody who wants to learn Spanish.
  • Great for advanced learners, targeted practice

    As another reviewer has stated, this app is great for intermediate-to-advanced Spanish learners, though settings can be adjusted to suit beginners. It covers some of the less commonly taught verbs and more complex tenses/structures that are nonetheless very useful if you’re aiming for fluency. I especially like that there are lots of setting options so you can practice particular skills or adjust the difficulty level.The app has a classy design to boot. Very well done!
  • Great app

    This app is phenomenal! If you are at an intermediate or advanced level of Spanish this app will give you the ability to study not only isolated verbs but verbs in context. I especially enjoy being able to study subjunctive phrases, it is very useful to study this difficult topic in Spanish. I have tried to find where I can pay for the premium version though it does not seem to limit what you can study right now.

    Developer: how do I pay for the premium version?
  • So helpful!

    I just happened to stumble upon this app and love it! Thank you to whoever took the time to create this! I have been trying to improve my Spanish and find most language apps are too basic and designed for beginners. This app is straightforward, but very very helpful if you already know some Spanish and are wanting to practice more advanced, but realistic to how Spanish is actually spoken, sentences.
