Adapting Weight and Reps for Exercises Later in Workout?

I am wondering if the app has a built in function behind the scenes that takes into account reps and weight for exercises later in a workout.

For example, If i start my workout with an incline bench press, I'm going to put a lot of stress on my chest and wear it down right off the bat. Then, later in the workout, if i get another chest exercise, such as dumb bell bench press, I seem to struggle getting the reps in at that weight because i have already tired my chest out from the bench press.

Does the app take this into account? I feel like I'm throwing off the algorithm when I reduce the weight and reps from say 35lb to 25lb and 10 reps to 5, when if i did that second chest exercise first, I would have no problem doing the 35lb and 10 reps.

Phrasing another way... Does the app take into account weaker/tired muscles later in a workout when building a workout?
