Found major error immediately
I *just* downloaded this app to brush up on my Italian (I used to be pretty close to fluent).
I started right away with the ‘Regular are’ section since regular verb (especially the -are verbs) conjugation is where teaching/learning Italian typically starts.
Welllllll… the Italian verb example given, ‘to speak,’ is spelled wrong. ‘Palare’ is not an Italian verb. The correct spelling is PARLARE.
Therefore, PaRlare is conjugated:
Parlo
Parli
Parla
Parliamo
Parlate
Parlano
I’m sure it’s just a typo, but spelling is crucial when learning languages.

Hi, my apologies , I made this app as a little personal project years ago but didn’t have the time to support it. I have come back to it and fixed this word, it was just my typo.

This App is so poor it should not be supported by Apple. After paying the fee the various tenses all have the same conjugation.
What a load of rubbish.

When the first "verb" which appears is "palare"—to speak—you know it’s time to eject the app. Generally appears to be useless.

Don’t bother
This app is bad. Paid but won’t allow me to access all the conjugation. You have to pay £1.99 every time you want to learn to do anything. Waste of time and money l
Love It
I am just beginning to learn Italian and wanted to find conjugations of verbs quickly. This app does exactly that. It is easy to use. You can search by Italian or English verb (even just the beginning of the verb or a sequence of letters within). A list of infinitives will appear and upon selection of your verb of choice, the conjugation will appear. You can even listen to the pronunciation, if you want. Admittedly, I am not qualified to judge, but the speaker sounds authentic to me. I don't know how many verbs are in the app, but so far, so good. The present tense conjugations are free, and I don't need other tenses yet, but when I do, I will purchase. It will be worth it.
