Verbos Español 4+

Search Issue

My original review (below the line) is not entirely correct. Now that the developer has explained that the app’s searches are closer to pattern matches than to text strings, this makes the app more useful to me.

The developer is correct that I needed only to scroll in order to find the value I was looking for. So if you are new to the app, make sure you do likewise. It may be necessary for you to scroll in order to find the specific verb you are looking for.

Verbos Español is a good resource for those who want easy access to a comprehensive list of Spanish verbs and verb conjugations.

My Original Review:

This app is a good reference resource, but the search algorithm needs work. For example, the verb, ver, fails to appear when a search is run on that value. However, upon searching on “veo” then the verb, ver, appears.

Sorry, the app is not so smart. It doesn't know what you are looking for.

The search is just finding all verbs that match what you wrote on the search bar.
It just looks for matches on different forms of the conjugation of the verb (infinitive, present participle, past participle, present for 1st person, past for the 1st person or the selected translation if you enabled one) and shows the results.

In your search, the verb "ver" actually appears down on the list, you just need to scroll down.

Good resource, terrible annunciation

I am learning Spanish on my own. This is a useful resource for studying verbs. The definitions of individual words are quite detailed. One gets a sense of the nuance of the words. The downside of this app is that it will voice the definitions, but the voicing software is horrible. It is muffled and garbled and very slow. That is unfortunate for this otherwise useful app.

Thanks for your feedback!
My guess is that you only have the default voices installed on your device.

You can configure the Speech Synthesis voice in the app settings.
To configure the voice: 1. Open the app. 2. Go to Settings. 2. Select Speech Synthesis. Then under the voice drop down select your desired voice.

You can also install voices in the Settings app and the app can use them.
To install more voices: 1. Open the Settings app. 2. Select Accessibility > Spoken Content > Voices. 3. Install your desired voices. 4. Go back to the app settings and select the new installed voice.

I hope this helps!
