CASS switch to Barclays (via app) - possible to choose switch date?

If I'm switching to Barclays using their app to make the application (so as to take advantage of the switching bonus), is it possible to choose the switch date?

Looking at the switching information on Barclay's website, specifically the FAQs on page 8 of the more detailed PDF switching information pack, it says this:

  • 1. Can I choose my switch date?
  • Yes, you can choose and agree a switch date if you start the switch in one of our branches.

That rather looks to me like the answer is "no" if the switch is started via the Barclays app. I'm just looking for confirmation of this...

Many thanks.
