Microsoft is gearing up to kick off its Build 2018 conference next week in Seattle, which means it's time for attendees to start planning their days out. And if you'll be carrying an Android or iOS device around, you can now do just that from your phone.
Microsoft today updated its official Build apps for Android and iOS for the 2018 conference (via Neowin). Like last year's version, the updated app allows you to check out the list of sessions and speakers, build out your own schedule, check out maps of the venue, and check out important information about the event.
As for Windows users, the app is available on the Microsoft Store, but it still includes the Build 2017 schedule and information. It's likely it'll see an update before the conference starts, but there's no telling when.
In any case, you can pick up the Build 2018 app now for both Android and iOS from Google Play and the App Store, respectively. Be aware that you will have to sign in with the account you used to sign up for Build 2018 in order to access the app.
