Based on the given information, the current release of App1 is version 4.0.0, and you have made a code change to fix a bug that was introduced in version 3.4.3. Following semantic versioning principles, the bug fix should be considered a patch, as it does not introduce any new features or breaking changes. Therefore, the version number for the release should be incremented in the patch position. Since the current release is 4.0.0, the next appropriate version number for the bug fix release would be 4.0.1.

The current version is 4.0.0. It doesn't matter when the bug was introduced. You can't go backwards in versioning. It was a bugfix with no breaking changes so you go from 4.0.0 to 4.0.1

Think when your favourite computer game is patched. Do they roll back the version to the version that the bug was introduced? No they update the current version

I am.surprised so many people think that a bug fix constitutes a major release? Isn't a bug fix a patch and therefore isn't it the third number that should be incremented - i.e. From 3.4.7 to 3.4.8?
