My go-to app for Italian verbs
I have a couple other apps that have Italian verbs, but this is the one I find myself using. I love its completeness, good layout, and the fact that I can hear the pronunciation in all the tenses.

A quick grammar reinforcement and vocabulary builder.
Passato Prossimo
Is it possible to add passato prossimo?
I love this app!
Out of all other language learning apps, this one is my favorite! Thank you so much.

Why can’t we hear the word?
Super helpful app
I use this every day!
Hai ingoiato un dizionario?
I really like the range of verbs available. I might end up ‘talking like a dictionary’, but it’s good for comprehension to be exposed to so many synonyms and obscure terms. If there was an option to focus on core/essential verbs (to be, to have, etc.) that would be good for a beginner. Most people starting the language (and potentially downloading an app) aren’t going to get past A2.
Vurbit is challenging and meaty, more at the B3/C1 level. Multiple choice can seem easy once you get the hang of it. The user just needs to know what a noi/voi/loro ending would look like and choose the most similar-looking option. The typing test is much more challenging, with an unexpected change in stem often throwing a spanner in the works. But overall, it’s a good exercise in working out how to conjugate Italian verbs.
Longer term, would it be possible to have a multiple choice spot quiz jumbling up several different tenses (so the user has to work out if it is present, conditional or future, etc.) together with different subject pronouns? I tried to do this for myself, but my programming skills are limited to ‘Basic’ from the 1980s (shoutout to the Sinclair Spectrum).
I’m enjoying the app and, when there was a minor bug, the developer fixed it rapidly.

Such a good app!
I speak both English and Italian and I still find myself using this on a daily basis! I’ve sent it to all my friends too!
