As far as I remember app parameter doesn't have this flexibility. Depending on the type of the datapage you will be able to get current day of the week in calculated field:

DATENAME ( dw , '[@cbTimestamp]')

Thank you @Mathilda. For Submission forms, how can I initialize a regular text field to get the Current day of the week

In this case you may use java script. I created a simple example for you, you should paste script in the footer of the datapage:

<script>
window.onload = function myFunction() {
    var d = new Date();
    var weekday = new Array(7);
    weekday[0] = "Sunday";
    weekday[1] = "Monday";
    weekday[2] = "Tuesday";
    weekday[3] = "Wednesday";
    weekday[4] = "Thursday";
    weekday[5] = "Friday";
    weekday[6] = "Saturday";

    var n = weekday[d.getDay()];
    document.getElementById("InsertRecordField_name").value = n;
}
</script>

Enter name of your field instead of: Field_name
