So what I'm getting from this is Asus Router App is giving me a firmware update released from Asus, so if I install I'll lose Merlin am I right?

Cause login into router config page and checking for update says there's none available

Your Asuswrt-Merlin firmware is not fully compatible with Asus Router App. For this reason the App is not supported and it was discussed multiple times. Changing settings on the App is entirely your risk and responsibility. You really have to leave this router alone.

From RMerlin the Asus-Merlin developer. From this post here and this one here on using the Asus app:
The Asus app doesn't know what firmware the router is running:
Don't use the app. It has no idea what firmware your router is truly running, and will blindly offer you whatever the app can find on Asus' server.
Asus app is not supported:
Configure it through the webui. The mobile app is not supported.
