I use mempool.space to check fees, I’ve never had an issue that gives me wrong info that makes me overpay. Maybe because it uses USD ?

I ended up ditching the app called "Bitcoin wallet" for android and started using the app "Green". This one at least let me use custom fees and also set the fees by sat per vB.

But yeah basically my transactions are of 140.5 virtual size.

So now that I know this I can just go to bitcoinfee.net (or the site you mentioned ) and multiply the sat/vB of preference by 140.5

Thanks!

Oh I didn’t even consider the bigger the transaction size the bigger the fee?

Although I fell you can always just choose like 5sats
