Hi Pam, I am not sure exactly what you mean by does the "Should I Sleep" app interfere with other apps? It does in the sense that it keeps the computer from automatically going to sleep under certain circumstances. Using the app has not prevented any of my other applications from running properly.
Should I sleep just exists in the extras menu. It does not have a system preferences pane. This is why I think it would only be accessible with VoiceOver on Mountain Lion.
