The application of the app is in its simplicity.

If you get the virus then the health authorities will be able to get in touch with people who have been in contact with you as indicated via bluetooth.

Alternatively, the health authorities will contact you if the app shows you came into contact with an infected person.

The health authorities will then tell you what to do next.

To answer your other concerns:

It is cheap.
It is not a kneejerk reaction, but yours is.
In some people their symptoms are asymptomatic, the app will tell them they have been in contact with someone who has the virus.
It's not only about flattening the curve, but getting ahead of it.

Don't be a silly boy and download the app. The life you save might be your own.
Appreciate your concern but my arguments still stand. So its a no from me.
