Given there were literally hundreds of paper calendars I think I looked at the 
app maybe twice throughout the whole weekend. It was really pretty, but slow 
and ultimately pointless once you’d put your chosen sessions into your own 
calendar (as I’m sure a lot of people did) or indeed just circled them on your 
programme.

Creating an app is a big endeavour, creating a *good* app even more so. I don’t 
think it’s really necessary to do so.

Obviously, it is not up to par with conference apps, like the Google I/O app.

Are there any plans to get an official app for use for subsequent conferences 
of Wikimania? Or sponsors who happen to be app developers will do us the honor?

I think this year's event was the tenth Wikimania. Launching an app to 
celebrate that wouldn't have been a  bad idea.

The app link above says "official Wikimania app", but not very official to me 
as was built by one of the sponsors of the event.
