Share price question

Really basic question but of late I have noticed a lot of this on my watchlist and can’t find a definitive reason. Compare the two screenshots below on the dates I have highlighted, 27/4/20 price is 1.204 and the next day is 122.67

No idea where you're viewing that data but it's clearly wrong - there are plenty of other sites giving the correct information, without that massive dip, such as https://www.lse.co.uk/SharePrice.asp?shareprice=BT.A&share=Bt-Group, https://www.btplc.com/sharesandperformance/investmentoverview/sharepriceinformation/sharepricesummary/index.htm, etc

Stocks app on iPhone and iPad. It does it on various other companies as well, not just BT. Agree that it looks odd and completely incorrect.

Some shares are quoted in pounds, some are quoted in pence...
