Android O OS - What to do if Badge is not Shown on Messages app for New Messages?

Last Update date : Apr 16. 2018

Concept has been changed according to the Ores OS concept. Notifications and badge are corresponding each other. If you turn off app notification, you cannot see anything on app icon. With N OS, app icon is activated to notify a user when new alarm was detected although App notifications has been disabled. Whereas setting value of App icon badges is interlocked with notification panel  in O OS.

 

In other words, if App notifications is disabled alarm will not alerted when new message is detected. Launch Settings app > Apps > select relevant application(messages etc.) > tap Notifications > tap Allow notification switch to activate it.
