Activity indicator on each camera (red number)

It seems like the latest update eliminated the red circle with new activity on each camera. Can that be added back in? Now it just indicates new activity at the top and does not indicate which camera had the activity.

    I second this! There’s no easy way for me to make sure I’m reviewing every notification without writing down and manually keeping track of the last time I checked. I really relied on that number. If there’s any way to add it back in the settings, that would be wonderful! In my neighborhood there’s some weirdos wandering around here. I never want to miss if someone is checking my gate or wandering around the property. I religiously check every camera notification on all 9 of the cameras on my property. This update definitely makes that more difficult to do.

      Yes thank you! Came here to say the same. Where did it go? This is awful! You need to visually and quickly see how many activities you've missed since last opening the app, with it having to click into each camera and scroll back through the timeline looking for any, esp when you don't even know how far back to go. The indicator used to give a number of activities since last looking at it. If there were none, no indicator, you can skip checking that camera. Now I have to check all cameras every time. And notifications is not a suitable replacement at all. Again, this is an awful change. Ring PLEASE fix this, and the devices moving to bottom of app.

      Same here, this was a terrible change. I don’t have time to hunt through event history. Give us the red notification counter back.
