Torque Coolant Temp vs Gauge Temp

Coolant tank needed replacing so I order new and at the same time order Bluetooth ODBII transmitter

Changed out my tank(Oh what a #!@* joy) and went for a test drive last night. Got every thing nice and warmed up. So the Torque (Free version for now) Temp seem to match the Gauge during the warm up to operating temp.
As I drove, the gauge stayed in it's normal zone (a bit over 180) but the torque value climbed to 190s then to 201-202. I was just driving housing development streets with lots of stop signs. The torque temp fluctuated high 190s to 201, back and forth depending on stops.

Does that sound normal?
I have read that the ODBII value will be higher then gauge so I expected that
I haven't gotten out on highway yet to see where the torque values ranges at
