### 5/5 — Better than Duolingo

*2026-08-15, version 3.16.3*

I needed something that allowed me to specifically focus on verbs (while still giving me my precious streak.) I also love that it isn’t cluttered with worthless flashy chests and skins like Duolingo has become and focuses on the learning with the dopamine being from completing a lesson and keeping your streak, not a million time sucking distractions. The customer service is phenomenal too!

### 5/5 — Fantastic App!

*2026-08-15*

This app has been very helpful to me as I learn Spanish. Jane & Brian (the developers) are receptive to user feedback and regularly update it with modern and useful functionality. Excellent value for $. I highly recommend it.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for this and for noticing the updates! We really do read every piece of feedback that comes in, so thank you for the suggestions! We're delighted the app has been so helpful as you work through your Spanish 😊

Thanks again for the lovely review!

Best wishes,
Jane & Brian

### 5/5 — Gracias Jane

*2026-08-14, version 3.16.3*

Spoke to Jane and asked to conjugate one or two verbs and she offered more help without me asking. I found the pdf most helpful it says mr carrying my 501 book. Thanks Jane.

### 5/5 — Great way to study Spanish verb tenses! ♥️

*2026-08-13, version 3.16.3*

This app. is well developed. It allows user to focus on verb tenses they are learning. Using it even for a few minutes builds confidence. Thank you, ELLA Verbs  😄

### 5/5 — So engaging it’s habit-forming

*2026-08-13, version 3.16.3*

Even after years of using Ella daily, I look forward to it as much as my morning coffee. It’s easy to customize the lessons and quizzes so you’re never bored and always challenged at the right level. Use it to practice speaking, Sudoku puzzles, vocabulary, grammar, conjugation, and so much more.  Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Game changer!

*2026-08-11, version 3.16.0*

In the beginning - this app is what brought together years of trying to learn on my own.  Now this is my favorite tool as I continue to dig deeper.  Thanks for the numerous flexible options on how and what I choose to study at any moment.  And Spanish sudoku!

### 5/5 — Best Verb App

*2026-08-11, version 3.15.7*

Hands down this is the best verb app I have used. And I have used a lot of them. I also love that the creators still oversee it and really take feedback and care about their customers experience. I hope they never sell. No one would run their app with as much attention as they do.

### 5/5 — Best Verb Learning

*2026-08-11, version 3.15.7*

Ella Verbs has provided a great learning experience with ease of vocabulary and understanding

### 5/5 — Helpful, practical, focused, always improving the site

*2026-08-10, version 3.15.7*

The above title says it all.

### 5/5 — A great way to practice verb conjugation painlessly

*2026-08-01, version 3.15.7*

This app lets you practice easily whenever you have time. Being able to grab a little bit of practice here and there throughout the day is super helpful. The app is very well organized and easy to use. Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — I use it every night

*2026-07-31, version 3.15.7*

I try to practice with Ella Verbs every night b/c it helping me get faster at translating my English thoughts into Spanish spoken words.

### 5/5 — One goal (verbs!) well done!

*2026-07-28, version 3.15.2*

I wanted a straightforward way to learn conjugating Spanish verbs from the beginner level. I knew I needed repetition and multiple ways to interact, but also good instruction. This app delivers from simple present tense of the top 100 regular verbs to many levels beyond that. The app is updated regularly with improvements and the developers seem quite engaged.

### 5/5 — Fantastic app

*2026-07-26, version 3.14.13*

I can’t rave about this app enough. I’ve tried to do drills at home and it just wouldn’t stick. This is doing the trick!

### 5/5 — Great resource

*2026-07-23, version 3.14.12*

I use this app every day.  If you want to learn Spanish verbs this is the app you need.

### 5/5 — Verb tensed

*2026-07-22, version 3.14.9*

I’ve been learning Spanish and while I am able to speak and understand simple phrases, I kept getting mixed up on the verb tenses until I found Ella Verbs.  The tables they put together were well laid out and just what I needed to help the “lightbulb” click! I feel I will be able to speak more phrases since I now understand how to use the Verb tenses

### 5/5 — Amazing app and great founders!

*2026-07-20, version 3.14.6*

The best app I’ve found for learning Spanish by far, and the founders were so kind over email. Super great app.

### 5/5 — Very good!

*2026-07-19, version 3.14.6*

One of the best apps to master grammar. They are so generous with their welcome offer, thank you so much once again.

### 5/5 — Gabby

*2026-07-19*

I’m updating my review.  
I love this App and I love that Jane and Brian are not remote and genuinely want it to work for people learning a new language.  In Spanish, verbs are everything and they make it more user friendly and realistic by using sentences to practice them and a host of other features.  So, it’s not just a conjugation exercise.  
What’s more, they send out releases regularly and accommodate so many requests.  
It is just so useful and designed to meet time limits; you can spend 5 mins or 50.  What’s not to like.  It’s simple, fun and motivating to use, a big plus for a non techie like me!  
Keep it coming Jane & Brian.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for this amazing review! We're thrilled you're enjoying the regular updates and in-context sentence quizzes. And please keep the feedback coming! It's our users that help to shape the app 😊

Best wishes,
Jane & Brian

### 5/5 — Best verb app

*2026-07-19, version 3.14.6*

I’ve looked for years and this is by far the best verb app. I have found.

### 5/5 — Good App

*2026-07-18, version 3.14.6*

This app is helping me alot with my school Spanish lessons and I’m now in set 1 after having this app for a few months. Absolutely Recomend for students in Spanish lessons or looking to take Spanish for a GCSEs

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Conjugation quizzes

*2026-03-12, version 3.7.3*

This app used to be a great tool to study verbs. why do I have to pay to quiz myself on other conjugations besides the present? I understand they need money to have to app running & to improve the app but that’s wild to me. I understood only allowing the top 100 verbs to be study and having to pay to study more of them. But conjugations tho.

### 1/5 — You cannot cancel subscription

*2026-02-17, version 3.4.14*

in order to cancel subscription you have to write an email to them. I did that and after 20 days they still cashed me….

### 1/5 — It is not worth paying for.

*2025-06-01, version 2.19.18*

It does nothing you can't get cheaper (or free) and far better elsewhere. If you see ellaverb's  youtube ad -- the same one that has been running interminably for years -- the echo-y audio quality and stilted script equate perfectly to the poor quality of their app.

### 1/5 — No full access from the program

*2024-10-26*

on my 7 day trial i reached preterite irregulars, then applied for the give back program. Said they would give it in at least 24 hrs. Been around a week and still havent gotten it but it would be a 5 star if they didnt lie about the program

**Developer response:** Hey there, we have always given anyone who requested Give Back access within 24 hours - are you sure the email sent correctly to support@ellaverbs.com? This sounds like the email might have just been lost - the program is real and not a lie. Please email us again and mention this and we will see you have access asap. Thanks, Jane

### 1/5 — It is bad

*2024-09-28, version 2.12.2*

It really does very little you can’t do for free “real free” elsewhere like spanishdict, more comprehensively. And ads for it bomb spanish learners every day.

### 1/5 — Good app

*2024-09-18, version 2.12.2*

Should be free

### 2/5 — Great App but Why Subscription?

*2023-03-04, version 1.17.3*

It’s a great app and I can def see myself paying for the pro version.

But when there are one time payment alternatives I don’t see why I’d pay $40+ for a year subscription (or the $10/month!).

### 3/5 — Good but limited

*2025-12-24, version 3.1.17*

App tends to use same verbs some of which are not useful ie morir.  How many times do you have to conjugate “to die or to sleep” ?  Would be better with more useful verbs

### 3/5 — Quality issues

*2025-03-11, version 2.18.1*

Fun app that could be good. Sadly it includes obvious mistakes in Spanish, causing you to learn the wrong thing. Such as insisting “you sing” is “canta” (instead of “cantas”) in its very first quiz! 🤯

### 4/5 — Thank you Ella Verbs!

*2026-07-18, version 3.14.6*

Ella verbs, I really appreciate having Ella Verbs! Because having it is so nice! I do Duolingo and it doesn’t do typos AND with Ella Verda I somehow am able to remember everything! Thank you so much for Ella Verbs! Thank you for creating it! 😆

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-08-27*

This is such a great app. There is no short cut to leaning verbs but this app made it much easier. I used it on the bus and practiced with the tests at each level. The explanations are very useful and the interface is easy to use and not crowded. Highly recommend.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the lovely recommendation! We're thrilled the structure and explanations made the practice feel more manageable 😊

Thanks again for the wonderful review!

Best wishes,
Jane

### 5/5 — Great app. But..

*2026-08-26, version 3.16.7*

To pass the levels you have to get at least 28 right. If you make an error or doing these god forsaken irregular verbs. Just might as well start over. End up spending 30 to an hour just trying to pass the level sometimes. Or I just end up having to use Google Translate since some levels just throw way too many irregular verbs at you at once.

(Update, this is actually a really great app. I was just a little frustrated that day and the developers cleared up some confusion. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️)

### 5/5 — Great little app

*2026-08-26, version 3.16.7*

Actually makes learning verbs almost fun!!!

### 5/5 — Must have in your toolbox

*2026-08-24, version 3.16.7*

This app will fast track your progress with consistent practice

### 5/5 — Órale!

*2026-08-22, version 3.16.5*

Ella Verbs es una herramienta estupenda para aprender. Me parece fantástica

### 5/5 — I never write reviews.

*2026-08-21, version 3.16.5*

Like never, ever. However, this app is so good, I felt it deserved a genuine tip of the cap. I’ve been actively taking classes and doing group with a tutor for almost two years and I’ve tried most all of the free Spanish language learning content that’s out there. This app, for me, has been the best free version period. It’s clear and concise. The lessons and explanations make perfect sense and the quizzes are excellent. I will be upgrading to the pro because they provide so much of learning foundation as it is, I know the pro will fully unlock my speech and understanding.

### 5/5 — Really worth using

*2026-08-19, version 3.16.5*

I am finding this app so helpful. I was really struggling with conjugation but now I’m using Ella Verbs regularly correct conjugation is coming far more naturally.  So many Spanish learning apps do not focus enough on conjugation, therefore making it difficult to progress. I use this alongside a regular Spanish app and have noticed a lot of improvement in my ability.

### 5/5 — Quality and Excellence

*2026-08-17, version 3.16.3*

10/10  This app has been so useful and if you are grammatically focused in language learning this is a great way to start.  Verbs are so fun to learn!

### 5/5 — Super Helpful App

*2026-08-16, version 3.16.3*

I love this app. It is well done, organized, and helps me practice the most difficult part of learning Spanish…conjugations!

### 5/5 — Brilliant app

*2026-08-15, version 3.16.3*

Me ayuda mucho todavía ❤️
