That's a different scenario...unfortunately, if the users discover the site and they have collaboration rights there, they are going to be able to modify data directly in the site. There are tow possible workarounds for you here:
(1) Hide the Lists and Document Librararies used in the PowerApp: https://www.c-sharpcorner.com/article/how-to-hide-sharepoint-list-using-pnp-powershell/
(2) Force a redirect to the SPO home page to any user trying to access the site: Develop a SPFx extension that prevent any user except especific ones to access the site.
