I don't quite get why Wikimania would need an app? If someone builds one and it is useful in that instance, great - but I don't see an incentive to invest time, energy or money into it? So please enlighten me, what would be the upside?

I used the Wikimania Android app during the conference. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=io.eventspark.wikimania2014
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.
