How accurate is the torque app? Im running the free version just to check trip average and instant fuel consumptions.

So i usually coast in neutral with engine on down hills and to a traffic stop/light. the instant fuel consumption skyrockets but the average barely goes up, however yesterday on my trip home from work, i decided to coast in gear down hills, the instant fuel consumption went up but nowhere near as high as usual however the average went up faster than normal and i got my best average consumption while using the app. I have read that on modern fuel injection engines, the injectors shut off when coasting in gear, could this be the reason, i use more fuel coasting in neutral than i do when in gear.
