How is this a first world problem? Air traffic is growing means of transport in lots of developing countries.
India's air traffic has been growing at 17-20% per year. Smartphone ownership is also growing in developing countries.
Now think of the fuel and productivity costs of airport pickups. Usually if I'm early I end up driving around the airport, or worse, spending lots of money on parking. In India people typically wait at the side of the road with their AC on.
If this app works perfectly, there is a lot of real gain to be had, and not just in the US.
