This is the code that works for me. Note the $GLOBALS['acf_form']['return']

function my_pre_save_post( $post_id )
{
    // check if this is to be a new post
    if( $post_id != 'new' ) {
        return $post_id;
    };

    $title = trim($_POST['acf']['field_5702e3df3ce82']);

    // Create a new post
    $post = array(
        'post_status'  => 'publish' ,
        'import_id' => $_POST['acf']['field_5702b6a15e788'],
      	'post_title' => $title,
      	'post_name' => sanitize_title( $title ),
        'post_type'  => 'app'
    );

    // insert the post
    $post_id = wp_insert_post( $post );

    // update $_POST['return']
    $_POST['return'] = add_query_arg( array('post_id' => $post_id), $GLOBALS['acf_form']['return'] );

    // return the new ID
    return $post_id;
}
add_filter('acf/pre_save_post' , 'my_pre_save_post');
