When it says to repot, is that always necessary? Example photo, I don't think it is necessary?

Nope! Plantas just a guide, you don't have to follow it strictly, and she seems happy so I don't see a reason for change

No you don't need to repot IF its in a good soil for succulents. And it depends on how long you've had it. If its been years then i would give it some fresh soil.

Sometimes you need to repot to give it fresh soil even if you don't change pot size.

No, I use this app for suggestions mostly. If it isn’t root bound and is doing well you don’t have to repot
