Includ. an example sentence using the conj. verb & explain when to use that particular tense
There are resources available online and and in books that can be much more helpful than what I can provide in the app. The usage of verb tenses can be quite complicated, and language books devote many chapters to them.
However, I do understand your concern, and at one point I considered providing a reverse translation, but this is now off the table because google translate is too expensive (it used to be free). Also, the translations could be misleading and weren’t always accurate. Best to seek thorough explanations from legitimate sources. :)

Hi,
I'm glad you learned a lot of verbs from the app! That is its speciality, and I left grammar out and tense explanation out because it is fairly complicated and falls outside the scope of just learning verb conjugations.There are plenty of resources online where you can learn about grammer, I suggest doing that and returning to the app to drill the verb conjugations.
That said, the tenses you will get the most use out of are:
Presente (obviously)
Imperativo (this one is easy)
Passato Prossimo (past tense)
Imperfetto (also past, but different)Mastering those tenses is crucial.
Follow up with:
Condizionale Presente
FuturoLook these up online and you'll find out a lot more than I could explain in my app.
I'm not a professional teacher, but I hope this is helpful!
Thanks,

I can conjugate really well now because of Italian Conjugation Nation. Thank you so much!! While I take the quiz, I translate back to English in my head so that someday I will know how to use each tense. However, I still don't fully understand WHEN to use each tense. I could kill two birds with one stone if the context(?) in which a certain tense is explained & written in Italian was included. I'd pay more for that for sure!!
