About this app

Spanish verbs don't have to be scary.

Whether you're just starting to learn Spanish or pushing towards fluency, Spanish verb conjugation is usually what holds you back. Other apps make you memorize. We teach you to understand, so conjugation finally clicks and you can actually hold a conversation.

Ella Verbs is the Spanish verb app built for learners who want real progress.

How Ella Verbs works:

Learn a concept → Quiz until it clicks → Level up. Short lessons, plenty of practice, and a clear path from the present tense to the subjunctive, broken into 50 manageable levels. Our Smart Quizzes use spaced repetition (SRS) to target the patterns you're struggling with: not just individual words, but the tenses and verb types that aren't clicking yet. You practice what actually needs work, not what you already know.

What learners are saying:

"In 22 days I've learned more than in all the years before." ★★★★★

"I am not afraid to form sentences or speak anymore." ★★★★★

"Learned more in 3 days than 3 years on Duolingo." ★★★★★

"Great for beginners but essential for serious learners." ★★★★★

We're rated 4.9 out of 5 stars based on 15,000+ ratings.

What you get:

• 50 levels of bite-sized lessons and quizzes covering 18 tenses
• 2,500+ verbs with full English translations, synonyms, and step-by-step conjugation guides
• Smart Quizzes with spaced repetition (SRS) that target your weak spots (Pro)
• CEFR level tracking (A1 → C2) to see where you stand
• Speaking quizzes: say each answer out loud and the app checks it
• Practice your way: typing, multiple choice, flashcards, listening, or sentences in context
• Daily Verb Sudoku: a conjugation puzzle for when you want a change from quizzes
• Full lessons on tricky topics like ser vs. estar and reflexive verbs
• Works offline, and syncs across phone, tablet, and web

Start free: the first 11 levels, the top 100 verbs, the daily Verb Sudoku, and a free Pro trial with no card needed. Pro unlocks all 50 levels, all 2,500+ verbs, Smart Quizzes, custom quizzes in every tense, and your own verb lists.

Built by learners, for learners:

We're Jane and Brian: an Irish couple living in Spain, learning Spanish ourselves. We built Ella Verbs because we couldn't find a method that actually taught conjugation instead of just drilling it. We're a small team and read every email ourselves (really). We release updates almost every week.

I have used Duolingo every day for over 4 years and I feel that my ability to conjugate verbs in different tenses should be better than it is. Ella Verbs plugs that gap by offering some structured learning, including in the vosotros form. It's really helpful and user friendly. I started from level one, because I thought that a recap would be useful, and I found that the explanations for stem changing verbs and irregular verbs were much better than the random offerings of Duolingo.

A 4-year streak is amazing dedication, and starting from level one for a solid recap is a great strategy! We're thrilled you're finding the app so helpful and user friendly :) Thanks for the wonderful review and happy learning! Best wishes, Jane

A good app for a grown-up learning environment, free from irritating pings, silly owl noises and self-congratulatory messages consistent with infant school. I got the free version to try, alongside a popular free lingo app, which I then dumped and subscribed to Ella when realising it perfectly suits my learning style. I like the simplicity of it and the gentle reminder of a daily streak to encourage consistency. An excellent reference tool, if grammar's your thing, I highly recommend this app.

I can't mentally switch between tenses as I need to in conversation and have been trying to find an app to help develop that skill. The "sentences" section in the custom quizzes of Ella is absolutely fantastic. It switches between tenses with each question depending on how far you are through the course. It's a much more accurate representation of "real life" verb usage. This whole app is well thought out. If you're a serious student looking to improve your Spanish, it's a great buy.
