Essential Tool
I use this app almost daily as part of my language learning journey. Even as I take formal classes, and even as I also use other language apps (such as Rocket and Babbel), VerbForms has become an essential tool in my language learning toolbox.
It presents a breadth of verbs and conjugations in a clear and readable way. And if this were all it did, that alone would make it worth the price, but it also provides exercises and lessons to help reinforce the reference information it offers.
Although its user interface is intuitive and easy to navigate on its own, the tutorial is a great addition to the app.
I suggest only that a glossary of verb grammar terms (accompanied by a few examples) would be a great addition for a future version.
For example, not everyone will understand the meaning of terms such as “pluscuamperfecto” or “future compuesto” or subjuntivo imperfecto -ra versus subjuntivo imperfecto -se.
Of course, we can always consult references sources on the web, but it would be helpful to integrate directly in the app at least the terms the app itself uses, along with one or two examples of how each verb tense functions in a sentence.
I wholeheartedly recommend VerbForms to any serious student of language who wants to broaden their vocabulary and fluency with verbs in particular. Excellent work.

Love this verb app!
5 stars
Works well on my phone and ipad
Great app with an easy layout and large database of verbs. Surprisingly, the layout on my ipad was even better than my phone with easy access to all forms.
Perfect
Everything you need to know about Spanish verbs in a format which is easy to use.
Simply the Best Conjugation app 'Out There!'
I've tried them all; this is the one you want.
+7000 Spanish verbs including the 1000 most frequently used.
Touch the screen to have every form of every conjugation spoken aloud?! Amazing.
I am even able to send my students customized lists. If they have the app installed they can tap on the file I send them and import the list into their app for study.
Great support and frequently updated.

What a fantastic course
I use my Spanish every day for four hours. For me, it is invaluable.
Just really really good.

Ok. But where are the exercises?
There is a section called exercises but there do not seem to be any in there. Frustrating!
I don't know who calls the pretérito the indefinido.
Works best as an aid to people already studying the language in depth.

Meaning?
A very nicely laid out app, a great learning aid BUT - why don't any verb tables EVER translate the MEANING of the various tenses?!
Could we have a definition of exactly what hubiste pasado or habria pasado for example are in English? It would help enormously in learning which tenses to use when. Nobody does it - you guys would be the first and so the best!

Sorry, but this is impossible because it's usually necessary to take the context into account in order to find the correct English translation of a Spanish verb form as the use of tense and mode is always specific to a language and there is no exact mapping between different languages.
Does all you need
Cannot really fault this app. Hit the small info icon in any tense to reveal the endings. As a language freak I've got the German and Portuguese versions also. Love them.
Great app!
Very well done.
It would have been a 5 stars app if printing capabilities where included.
Maybe in a future update.
Thank you.
