I need to show a badge count on the app icon in Xamarin.Forms (Android). I'm using the Plugin.Badge package to show badge in TabbedPageView, but now I need to put badge count on the app icon, like this image below:

Badge count on the app icon android

Can anyone help me, please? Thanks

  • Android does not have support for this. Certain launcher implementations offer this for their home screens. – CommonsWare Jan 11 '20 at 16:25
  • So how many apps have this notification on Android, for example, the Facebook app and Whatsapp? – Pedro Paulo Jan 11 '20 at 16:50
  • They only offer those badges on devices with a launcher that supports it, and they have code that supports the different APIs for those launchers. – CommonsWare Jan 11 '20 at 16:54

    This is not a duplicate question . This a very unique question that is not answered. All questions listed above are not specific to Xamarin. – Ashi Sep 08 '21 at 15:45
  • You can! From the doc: https://developer.android.com/training/notify-user/badges – G Clovs May 25 '22 at 13:51
