It so happens that when a user logs in, he should be able to upload forms and then view activity of the forms. I only want a specific user to see his submissions and not others. How do i go about this?  
This involves a lot of users logging in and making submissions in the same google sheet

This can be done by coding. When you know the user (user-id) then loop through the table and select the rows that are for this (user-id) and add these rows to another table (sheet) which is bound to the DVL (Data Viewer List).

See this example

I didn’t get what you mean. Do you want me to check your app?

If yes, send me the link and point me where to check, which screen which block.
