This update sees a big upgrade to v3 of the Verb Blitz engine! Amongst the general interface and activity makeovers, improvements include the following:
- The perfective of verbs has been more clearly marked where available
- Past tense game answers have been broken down by gender for more fine-tuned practice
- Thematic verb topics have been added to select in the games
A couple of extra verbs have also been added to the bank for good measure! We hope you enjoy the updates, and as always, let us know your feedback if you have any ideas for making the app even more effective for practising your Russian.
Happy learning!

Some minor tweaks under the hood to fix a couple of interface issues and a blip with the text-to-speech in verb tables on some devices. Happy learning!
2.8.3
2020-01-28
In the settings section, you’ll find sliders to adjust the speed of the multichoice and snap games. Speed them up for a challenge, or slow them right down to revise at leisure. It’s your call! Also, when playing the games, there is now the option to select the set “10 Essential Verbs” to focus on, so you can really blitz those fundamentals. We hope you enjoy the update. Happy learning!

This update corrects an issue on some iOS versions where the Infinitive Quiz failed to start properly. Thanks to the user who spotted and reported that bug. We've also added a few seconds to the multichoice quiz timer while we work on a custom option for that in the settings. We like a challenge, but ten seconds was maybe a little too stingy for some of the more demanding tenses! Happy learning!

Want bigger text in the verb list? We've just updated it to use Dynamic Type, which means that it will respond to your accessibility settings on iOS. *Much* better, even if we do say so ourselves. Happy learning! :)
