Thanks @Spiff -this is great information and very helpful to me. I have one followup Q: If i ran the app on the laptop running wireshark via an emaulator for example, would that negate the need for monitor mode as the packets would be coming directly to the same device?

@AndrewHall Yes, capturing traffic to/from your own device doesn't even require promiscuous mode, let alone monitor mode.
