Don't find any Lanyrd mobile apps in the Google play store; went
to m.lanyrd.com and indeed there's a mobile optimized website
there but nothing to suggest it has the ability to build any
personal schedule either.
over the long haul they will overtake Crowdvine, because they seem able
to make more effective use of web APIs, they are better known, and don't
expect the individual users to do as much work.

For whatever it's worth, Lanyrd has the advantage that more people
have heard of it, and CrowdVine is superior in every other way,

Most conferences I've attended (e.g., Brainshare, Adobe Max)
had their own web-based personal scheduling tool. Never used
Crowdvine before Apachecon, never used Lanyrd before yesterday.
Personal scheduling is about the only reason I'd used either
since almost everything else is back on the main conference
site.
