We have no mobile app so I’m not sure to what you are referring.

Correct. My mobile app has the correct numbers but my plug in in WordPress has HUGE numbers
I must be missing something here, I don’t know what mobile app your using as we don’t provide one. If your using another stats plugin (maybe Google Analytics?) and are using their mobile app then perhaps your seeing the difference between how they record hits and how WP Statistics does.

I’m sorry let me break it down and clarify..my mobile app (as in not y’all’s don’t worry about it) has the correct numbers.
I’m only using y’all’s plug in I believe.
The number on my dash oars under quick stats shows highly inflated info. I’ve spoken to WordPress support on a different matter when this came up. They said to contact yall to see why this numbers were so high. As the numbers are generated through y’all’s plug in.
Your mobile app must be using different stats (maybe JetPack?).
Anyway, in the end the following FAQ question covers the difference between us and other stats packages:
I’m using another statistics plugin/service and get different numbers for them, why?
Pretty much every plugin/service is going to give you different results for visits and vistors, there are several reasons for this:
•Web crawler detection
•Detection method (javascript vs server side PHP)
•Centralized exclusions
Services that use centralized databases, like Google Analytics, for spam and robot detection have better detection than WP Statistics can. The trade off of course is relaying on an external service.
