I would like to say first that this app is a WONDERFUL tool for beginner and intermediate students of Spanish that are trying to work on their conjugation skills (especially with the subjunctive mood and compound tenses); however, this app focuses almost exclusively on learning common verbs and their possible conjugations. That is to say that this app isn’t built to teach how to form proper sentences (outside of a few examples provided in the explanation at the beginning of each section), nor does it focus on pronunciation or grammar. As a side note, I am an advanced speaker of Spanish with a B2/C1 certification, and the app still considers me an A1 after several days (even though I am nearing the last milestone). Overall, this is a decent app for learning conjugations and vocabulary, but I would stick with Duolingo for a better understanding of the language holistically.

I’ve been looking for an app like this for years. My Spanish has always been stunted by me only being able to conjugate in the present and some sometimes the past. This app actually teaches me within minutes the proper way to do things. I’ve tried books, videos, you name it. It is well worth the money. Ella Verbs is the only thing that has worked for me the best. The only complaints I have are that I wish there was an option to leave the answer on the screen longer, and that you could miss 2 questions instead of one on the 30 question tests. I understand the tests are to make sure you know before advancing, but I feel like one question is a bit too much, especially when there is a slight typo sometimes. Thank you for this wonderful app!!

I didn’t realize how much I would like this app when I started the free trial. It is evident a lot of thought and effort has gone into making it an excellent learning tool. There is some teaching of verb conjugation, but what I find most useful are the quizzes. Right now I am practicing using the quiz which presents example sentences with a verb missing (but you can see the infinitive) and you need to choose whether to use the preterite or imperfect past tense, and to write it out with correct accent marks. After you choose, the correct verb is spoken and written. Another favorite right now is choosing when to use ser and estar. The default settings use 100 common verbs, but apparently you can change those settings to over 1000 verbs. I haven’t used all the verb conjugation forms yet, but a quick perusal made me think they have them all. Highly satisfied, and hoping they will offer an affordable lifetime purchase option for this app. Well worth your time to accept the free offer and try it out!
