How to play

  1. Pick a mode on the title screen: Presente, Pretérito, Imperfecto, Mandatos, or Mezcla (each verb row gets its own tense). Tap Jugar.
  2. Your turn: tap a cell on the enemy grid. The cell's row is a verb and its column is a pronoun, so tú + comer wants comes. Type it and tap the target button. A correct form fires the shot; a wrong one loses it.
  3. Enemy turn: the enemy announces a conjugated form, for example comíamos. Tap the cell on your board that matches it. Find it first try and it counts toward your listening accuracy.
  4. Sink all three enemy ships (7 cells) before they sink yours.

Accent buttons (á é í ó ú ñ) sit above the keyboard. Tap Ver tu flota during your turn to peek at your own ships.

Common questions

I typed the right answer but it was marked wrong.

Grading first checks for an exact match, then for the same pronunciation (accents, b/v, s/z/c, y/ll, silent h). If Evaluación con IA is on in Ajustes, borderline answers are judged by an AI model as well. If a correct form is still rejected, email the verb, pronoun, tense and what you typed and it will be fixed.

What does "Evaluación con IA" do, and does it need internet?

It judges answers that aren't an exact or phonetic match. The Apple engine uses the on-device Apple Intelligence model and works offline on supported devices (iPhone 15 Pro and later with Apple Intelligence enabled). The Gemini engine needs your own Google API key and an internet connection. If neither is available the app silently falls back to exact/phonetic matching. You can turn the whole feature off.

Do I need a Gemini API key?

No. It is optional. If you want to use it, create a key at aistudio.google.com and paste it under Ajustes. It is stored only on your device.

Why is the app in Spanish?

On purpose. It is a Spanish practice app, so the interface keeps you reading Spanish. Every verb shows an English gloss, and the prompt always tells you the pronoun, the infinitive and the tense.

Where are my stats stored, and how do I reset them?

On your phone only, in the app's local storage. Open Estadísticas (📊 on the title screen) and tap Borrar historial at the bottom to wipe them. Deleting the app also deletes them. Nothing is synced or backed up anywhere else.

The keyboard covers the answer box.

This was a bug on some iOS versions and is fixed in version 0.1.1 and later. If it still happens, email your iOS version.

Does it work on iPad?

The current release is built for iPhone. It installs on iPad in compatibility mode but isn't laid out for it yet.

Can I suggest verbs or tenses?

Yes, please. Email a list and it will go into the next release.
