It likewise didn't serve any useful purpose for me. I just saw it on the
phone, and thought, "what the heck is this doing here?"
Since it was branded as "official app", it appeared and i thought it is
something interesting to the Wikimania team of which perhaps they would
like to pursue.
I agree that it wouldn't be of any importance investing time in such an
app.

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.

I used the Wikimania Android app during the conference.

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.
