If it's always "ssh runs the app" and "non-ssh is a normal login", then
put the code to run the app in the "command=" parameter in their
authorized_keys file for their key. (You _are_ requiring them to use a
key to log in, and not a password, yes?) Then remove the code from their
.bash_profile. See "man sshd" under the heading "AUTHORIZED_KEYS FILE
FORMAT".
