Puzzle rating bug on mobile

Come on now...

Score does NOT increase. First screenshot was taken BEFORE winning a puzzle, second screenshot was taken AFTER winning it. There is no mixture here, no in-between puzzle, nothing. Took first screenshot, won puzzle, took second screenshot. Problem is clear.

I checked the stats a few hours after taking them and they were the same, so the excuse of sync problems is not valid here.

Will stop debating now, thanks to the devs if they notice my thread and fix the problem. Meanwhile, I'll simply do my puzzles on the mobile version of the website, as it's now available. :)
Though you could argue that the problem isn't important, since what matters is whether or not you solve the problem, lichess selects subsequent puzzles based on your rating. So if your rating goes down when you solve puzzles correctly, lichess will subsequently give you puzzles that are relatively too easy.

I must say I've never seen this behaviour myself, but then I only use lichess on the desktop and laptop, never mobile devices.
I wonder if there's a problem where not all games/ratings changes are shown in that summary view. So perhaps the scores internally are always correct but when it shows you the last 10 games there are other missing games between those and further down on the page when an earlier range of puzzles were played.

So when you show us 7+2 games and 8+2 games it's not another 1 game but actually maybe you played 5 more games but the code is showing us the most recent 10 games (for whatever reason) so it looks like it's just showing us 1 more. If you'd also taken a screenshot of the red/green squares with the scores in under the puzzle board it might be easier to determine if this is the case.
I also experience this bug, as well as losing points when trying a puzzle that friends sent me through a puzzle link : in the web site, failing the puzzle do not affect rating, but it does on the mobile app (also with puzzle of the day). I lost so many points on my puzzle score with this bug.
