If you want to delete a list, swipe the list name from left to right, and then confirm the deletion. Note, this is not "un-doable;" when you delete a verb list, it's gone. he screen will be added to the selected verb list.

Drill Mode
	The Drill View of Verbos. Verbos presents an infinitive, a tense and a pronoun for a Spanish verb. You can then say the answer to yourself and touch the answer button to see if you got it right. Touch anywhere on the screen to see the answer.
	When you touch the screen to get an answer. Verbos presents the answer. When you've seen the answer, touch again for the next quiz. Verbos chooses verbs randomly from the verb forms of over 500 verbs, or you can select what forms and types of verbs to quiz from. You can also create lists of verbs to choose from.
	You can have Verbos show you, at the time it shows the answer, the translation of the infinitive, the translation of the verb form, or no translation, at all. Choose your preference from the choices on the Settings menu. Shown at left is the selection to see verb infinitive translations.
	An answer, with the verb infinitive translation shown.
	Selecting No translation
	An answer with no translation.
	Selecting the verb tense translation. A note about the verb tense translations: each of the four Verbtrainer languages has tenses that do not directly translate into English. I have used the guidance in Barron's 501 Spanish Verbs (French, Italian and German, of course, for those languages), but the translations often are awkward and not familiar.
	An answer with the verb tense translation.
	While you're on a verb, touching the button titled, "Tense" presents the conjugation of the verb and tense that is on the Quiz View at that time. Touch the Close button to dismiss the Tense Conjugation.
	If you touch the button titled, "Full" you'll see a view presenting the full conjugation for the verb on the Quiz View. Again, touch Close to dismiss. If you want to see the conjugation of a specific verb, you can search for it using the "More Options…" button on the "Settings" menu.
	If you're using All Verbs to quiz from, you can add the infinitive on the screen to a verb list by touching the "+ to Verb List" button. You will see a list of existing verb lists; touch the one to which you want to add this infinitive. Note that the verb list must already exist; you can't start a new list from here. If you are using a verb list, touching this button removes the verb on the Quiz View from the list. The button's caption indicates that.
Verb Selection Criteria
	You can narrow the types of verbs Verbos will use for quizzes in five different ways: -Simple Verb Tenses -Compound Verb Tenses -Verb Types -Verb Endings -Person/Number To narrow the selection of verbs, first touch the "Settings" tab at the bottom of the screen, then the "What to quiz on" button. You'll see the screen at left. Now touch one of the five criteria, then touch the row of a type you want included. A check-mark indicates that verb forms of this type will be included. Touching "Use all..." selects or deselects all verbs on that page. The following screens show this.

	Verb Lists You can create and save any number of verb lists and then select a verb list for quizzing. This gives you great flexibility in strengthening areas you may be having trouble in. This screenshot shows what you'll see when you touch the "Manage Verb Lists" button on the Settings menu. In this case, there are two verb lists created: named "acabar" and "test."
	You'll see a list of all the infinitives available in Verbos. Touch one to select it for your list.
	You can quickly narrow the verb list by typing in characters in the search box. the infinitive list narrows to verbs starting with what you've entered.
	this view shows the infinitives list narrowed to words beginning with "ba."
	Touch the verbs you wish to add to your list. A checkmark will appear to show the verb has been added. Touch it again to remove the verb from the list.
	Touching the "English infinitives" button shows the list in alphabetical order of the English translations of the infinitives. touch the button again to return to Spanish infinitives.
	Touch the List name box, to open up a keyboard and give your list a name.
	When you return to the "Manage Verb List" view, the new list will be there.

	If you have one or more Verb Lists defined, and are using All Verbs, you can add a verb to a list quirky, by pressing the "Add to verb list" button on the drill view screen. A menu pops up, showing all the verb lists available.
Test Mode
	In Test Mode, you can set up a test for yourself, score your answer, and save the results of the test for review and seeing your progress. The Test Mode is like the Drill mode, in that you get a new verb form without an answer, think or say what you think the answer is, then touch the Answer button to see the correct answer. Then you score how you did, by touching either the Right or Wrong button.
	You can set the type of test you want. A timed quiz, with a set number of verbs; an untimed test, where you set the number of verbs you wish to be tested on; or a timed-only test, where you set the length of the test. In that case, the test will be for as many verbs as you can answer in the time limit.
	When you press the 'Start Test' button, Verbos starts the test using your Test Settings. You will see a small progress indicator at the left end of the middle row, showing how much longer the test will be, in seconds and/or number of verbs, as appropriate.
	After you've seen the answer for a test verb, you press the 'Right' or 'Wrong' buttons to score your answer.
	When the test completes, you will see your scores for that test. You can save the result, if you want to see your progress over time.
	Pressing the "Test History" button shows you the results of all the tests you've saved, with the most recent at the top. Pressing the "Clear History" button does just that: all history records will be cleared.
