Love it great app to help science in general. I would love to see a dark mode for the app in the future.

This app is brilliant. Being a citizen scientist is even better! I've been using Zooniverse for years. It brings many projects into one app. The website is really good but the additional of this clean, easy to use and navigate app just makes data recording more accessible to people. I had an issue with one project page, I reported it and the CEO of Zooniverse contacted me directly to thank me and let me know it was fixed. Absolutely fantastic customer service.

I love Zooniverse. The app has always been iffy at best, but it's nice to be mobile once in a while. I used to be able to use the app, but now it won't let me log in. It says my password is incorrect, which I know it isn't because it works on the desktop version. (Yes I logged out of the desktop site before trying on the app, and uninstalled and reinstalled it.) Hope this gets fixed at some point.

The mobile app is pretty much unusable (does not matter which project). The "editor" they used to mark objects is not optimized for touch, when you pan around for example it thinks you want to draw an object. Same when zooming or basically any touch interaction

Terrible app. Could not get the Galaxy classifications to work. As far as I can tell, none of the programs with the app actually work. It looks more like a display demo than an actual working app.
