This is an issue I've encountered as well, also with any magic item that grants spells for charges, I first noticed it on one of my personal homebrew items and added a Staff of the Magi to test it.
Essentially, any spell that costs charges which is an upgraded form of the spell counts the charges incorrectly. What it should do is "Max Charges: 7, Spell Level 7." and that will make it cost 7 charges to cast the spell at 7th level. However, what it is doing is counting seven charges for the base level of the spell and adding a charge for each slot level above the base so with fireball we're getting it 7+4 charges.

The appear to be correct on the website but fireball and lightning bolt cost 11 charges in the app not 7
