Here is a quick defenition of the Zooniverse project by Wikipedia:

Zooniverse is a citizen science web portal owned and operated by the Citizen Science Alliance. It is home to the internet's largest, most popular and most successful citizen science projects. The organization grew from the original Galaxy Zoo project and now hosts dozens of projects which allow volunteers to participate in crowdsourced scientific research. It has headquarters at Oxford University and the Adler Planetarium. Unlike many early internet-based citizen science projects (such as SETI@home) which used spare computer processing power to analyse data, known as volunteer computing, Zooniverse projects require the active participation of human volunteers to complete research tasks. Projects have been drawn from disciplines including astronomy, ecology, cell biology, humanities, and climate science.

As of 14 February 2014, the Zooniverse community consisted of more than 1 million registered volunteers. The volunteers are often collectively referred to as "Zooites". The data collected from the various projects has led to the publication of more than 70 scientific papers. There is a daily news website called 'The Daily Zooniverse' which gives information on the different projects and has a presence on social media.

Why did I make this app?
When I loaded the Zooniverse project on my Android phone, I had trouble seeing the content, it isn't really responsive, or maybe it's just my phone... Anyway, with this app I have quick access to the projects. It was a fun project to make this into an app.
