I always got my weight loss with 1200 cal manu max (still remain hungry during the day-but get to my weight goal in short time)
but when I set my goal in the app it says 1800 cal a day
I dont know if the 1800 will get me to my goal or make bad results..
does the calculator in the app is correct?
pls advise

The app is usually correct, depending on the data you gave it.
What are your stats: weight and height?0 -
The calorie goal in the app is as good as the information you input.0

With 11 pounds to lose, 1200 calories sounds like it would be too aggressive for you anyway0
-
mine says 1620, so I believe what it says0
