What's New in Version 2.0.0
We've given the Lanyrd app a shiny new design. We've refreshed every part of the app to be smoother, cleaner and easier to understand.
There are also lots of other improvements, including:
* Better offline support; we store events you are attending offline and load them instantly - no need to wait for the conference wifi and more convenient for when you're out and about.
* Improved Suggested Events; we have renamed this tab from 'Contacts' Events'. We still show you suggested events that your contacts are going to or interested in, but we now also show you upcoming events that have been added to guides you follow. This is similar to what we already do on lanyrd.com.
* New Profile tab; this is a new tab showing your profile so you can easily see your information.
* Better event schedules; we know lots of events have large schedules so we've redesigned the schedule page to make it easier for you to navigate. Events with long schedules can also now be searched.
* Improved speaker pages; these now include more information on each speaker including their bio if we have it, which sessions they're speaking at, upcoming speaking engagements, and events they're attending or are involved with.
* Improved people pages; similar to the speaker pages, these now include more information on each attendee, including their upcoming events. This provides you with more ways to connect with others during events
* Share more!; you can use our new "share" button to Tweet, email or share almost everything in the app, including the events, search and session pages. This makes it easy to share cool events you've found.
* About; we've updated our about section with a bit of a design refresh and to give you more information about the application.
