How it works
A complaint to the doctor opens not with ogʻriydi but with ogʻriyapti: the tail -yapti says the pain is here right now. Ogʻriydi — it hurts in general, from time to time; ogʻriyapti — it hurts this very minute. The difference is the same as between "it hurts" and "it is hurting right now".
The tail hangs on the verb stem and changes with the person: kelayapman — I am coming now, kelayapsan — you are now, kelayapti — he is now. We — kelayapmiz, you — kelayapsiz, they — kelayaptilar.
Other verbs work the same: choy ichyapmiz — we are drinking tea now, u uyga koʻchyapti — he is moving house right now. When the action is the everyday kind, -yapti is not needed: har kun choy ichaman — I drink tea every day.

How the rule settles in your head
A rule is not memorized from an explanation. It is memorized from an attempt to use it and a mistake — that is why the app delivers it mixed in with words, not as a separate lesson: it resurfaces exactly where you forgot it.
