Latest reviews of Verb Tenses app for iPhone and iPad
I shoudnt have bought this, Im really disappointed, I thougt that it had many verbs conjugation but all I can find is the verb to be, to have, and to do, Maybe I dont know how to use this but I dont liked.
I saw the negative star rating, but I took the plunge and bought this app. I bought it because I thought other apps from AAT, such as American Accent and Syllables, were very useful. I guess I expected there to be some explanation of all the Verb Tenses illustrated by accompanying tables and example sentences. What you get are 9 tables with audio. Thats it. I realize this is only $2, but Id rather pay more for something more useful. I had hoped might get a handy teaching reference, but it disnt work out. Using American Accent got me excited about the upcoming Grammar app advertised by AAT. This app, unfortunately, has curbed that enthusiasm.
