Am trying to find EI339 from Berlin to Dublin using the app. But when I turn on the filter to aer lingus flights all the flight numbers are two digits and a letter? And EIN33R it says is Berlin to Belfast…?

The flight numbers displayed on the map are the callsigns, which may or may not be the same as the flight numbers. These can be less cumbersome than the flight numbers, so using only 3 characters (numbers and/or letters) is better than say a four-digit flight number, so you see a lot of the Ryanair flights that possess 4-digit flight numbers actually using 3-digit callsigns. Saves a lot of time on the radio calls.

Most times the routes shown will be correct, but in some instances they will be wrong. The website help section explains why.
