I got the same answer that you did. If you can confirm the 
repeatability of this discrepancy, perhaps a bug report should be made.

Checking Account:   2,386.21
   - Subaccount_1:   2,264.04

    - Subaccount_3:  205.59
Savings Account: 0

Total:   2,587.16

Clearly the calculated total amount is wrong. I do not know what is 
calculated here from the information shown. Can someone confirm? The 
correct answer for the total would be 2,404.96 which is also shown 
when I look at my assets account.
(Side note: I would also recommend adding some visual distinction 
for subaccounts in the report balance sheet. Currently all is shown 
plain with the same indentation.)

Hi,

I imagine that it will come as a surprise to you to find out that the GnuCash 
Android app and the main Linux/Mac/Windows program are independent projects.

Despite the similarity of the name, the 2 projects are (as I understand it) 
unrelated.  

This list is for the "full-fat" program, not the Android app.  You might get 
more help if you use another support channel (especially for feature 
enhancements tot the App).  I regret to say that I don't know where other 
support might be found though.

HTH,
Maf.

Feeback and support is implemented inside the application.  Under the
main menu there is a selection for "Help and Feedback" and within that
there is a "Contact Us" selection (provides a form to send a message to
the developers), a "Feedback Forum" selection (provides a form to post
to the forum), and a Knowledge Base for select questions/topics.

The Play Store entry does happen to list gnucash.org as the project
website but it also lists gnucash-android-...@googlegroups.com as its email.

Between the built-in mechanisms and the Google Groups email the OP
should be able to get some support.

Are you using Reports:Assets & Liabilities:Balance Sheet?  If so, my
accountant wife agrees that it is poorly formatted.  And the other one
using eguile while better formatted includes an Income Statement as part
of the Balance Sheet.

Perhaps you would like to try a modified version of the eguile one that
my wife much prefers.  I call it "Balance Sheet -- formatted".  You can
download the associated files here: 
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1lAnu09qeAKQI66-k_uP558IpfL_2Ce-h

I forget which O/S you are on.  The config-user.scm goes into my
$HOME/.config/gnucash folder.  The other three go into
$HOME/.local/share/gnucash folder.

Beware if you already have a config-user.scm file.  Simply take the
contents and add them to your existing one:  (load
(gnc-build-userdata-path "balsheet-fmtd.scm"))

You will need to adjust the  above paths to your particular O/S.  I'm
running on a Linux distro -- Ubuntu 18.04

Thanks for reporting that, we thought that TLS was set up on lists.gnucash.org, 
but we had a configuration error. Derek thinks that he's fixed it.

Thank you for your friendly clarification. Apologies for this. I will
write to the email you provided. (Indeed I got to write to this list
through the GnuCash.org website since the Android app is promoted there
and above it is a big fat "Need Help?" info box that puts me through to
the mailing list without saying "not for Android" explicitly :)
Cheers

PS: There's a typo in the Android note "/Note that GnuCash for Android

Yeah, I can see it isn't explicit...

what's the typo, I must be being extra thick this morning, but the website it 
says exactly what you have typed above - what do you think it should say?

Perhaps that person thought "port" was supposed to be spelled "part".
After all, that is a highly technical term.
