Apple Releases WWDC App for iOS Devices

[SockRolid]

Can't wait to try it on my Apple TV!

[...] WWDC is a universal application supporting all iOS devices running iOS 4.2 or later. [...]

It'll be awesome to see this through Apple TV on my 60" Sony SXRD HDTV set.

Oh. Wait...

Uh, yeah they did. It was distributed only to attendees either via email or the developer download site, I forget which, and you had to install it manually via iTunes.

Correct, they definitely had this last year. I used the WWDC 2010 app. This new app looks very similar, and has very similar functionality. The main difference I've seen so far is that this year, it's on the App Store; whereas last year, it was distributed on the iOS Developer Portal (then called the iPhone Developer Portal).

Perhaps an app with a live feed of the event? :3

I went to WWDC 2009. That was the first year they had an iPhone app.

Can't access , guess since I'm not an attendy I'm not allowed to see anything

So it is useless for non-attendees?

I wish this wasn't just for attendees, I would love to see some pictures of it while its going on.

Me too! I got excited for a minute there, only to be greeted by the login screen when the app opened

No. It's there. I have it on my iPhone, not that I can use it or anything... Anyone can download it, but only attendees can login and access the content. Maybe that'll change in the future, never know. I could easily see them using the app as a way to access the Live Stream of the keynote. Makes too much sense for them not to add it at some point in the future.

WWDC app only for attendees

The app is only useful for those going to wwdc. And can not be used by anyone else. Useless
