As your own link shows, the main problem with condoms is people failing to use them properly (the 98% figure given for proper usage is actually one of the lower values I've seen for effectiveness in that case). Part of it is not putting them on right. The other part is much closer to one of the problems this app has: people getting caught in the moment and making an impulsive decision to proceed at least partially against the app/without a condom, then pull out (and either stop/apply a condom).
