What is the difference between views and requests?

What's the difference between "views" and "requests"? On my usage stats page for a feature service, the number is displayed as "requests", and it is substantially higher than the view count on the app in which the feature service is being used.

Hi,

Views show the number of times the item has been viewed or opened. The view count will increase when you open the item details page or open the item in the map viewer. Requests show how often a request is made to your hosted service. The count will increase by one, each time the service receives a request. This includes actions such as panning and zooming in the web map or when the service is queried via a web map or application. The requests number should be higher than the views of the item if the service is used in applications. Read the following documentation for more details:
