iOS Notifications - do badges work?
notifications
app-request

HI all, I have notifications working fine on my iPhone - when motion is detected, I get a notification on my screen. I was wondering though, I have never seen any badge numbers on the app - if I have not actually tapped the notification or opened the app to check out the motion notificaiton alert, I would expect to see a red '1' badge over the app. Are badges used like this, or is there jo badge support inthe app? thanks!

    Please add badge notifications to the iOS app. It is incredibly frustrating to see badge notifications for nearly all my apps--except Ring. This is not a small issue. Ring sells itself as a company that cares about their customers' and their family members' safety. How can I feel secure when I may one day accidentally assume that I do not have to worry about my home and my family's safety because I do not see badge notifications? What if there is an intruder at my doorstep and I fail to take notice because there is no badge notification? This is a small fix that could have huge ramifications.

      Any updates? Just got my first ring last week and could not figure out why I wasn’t getting badge notifications. Never crossed my mind that it’s not a thing. Honestly, I will research the competitors for my next purchase (we will be selling in the next 6 months and the ring will stay with this house) and see if any of them have badges enabled because it’s that important/useful to me.

        Any updates on this? I just purchased the doorbell and alarm system and this is definitely a super letdown. I mean my blink cameras have this capability.... Please add this feature.
