How loud do all the software developers need to yell "use paper ballots" before people figure out that electronic counting (for quicker results) isn't a terrible idea, but electronic records and simply adding more technology to the system makes voting confirmation and integrity weaker.
This app had no reason to exist - there isn't a reason why they couldn't use almost any other approach to collect the results for publishing - there are very few numbers to keep track of and people are only looking for provisional numbers on election night anyways.
