Red 1 on Settings Icon

I have a red 1 on my settings icon. However there is nothing in my settings that needs to be addressed. How do I get rid of it.

iPad mini, iOS 12

When you open settings, is there another red 1, somewhere, inside, as in on software update?


Most times, the red 1’s on settings were notice of a new iOS revision which I had to download. Somehow, though, I had no red 1, last time, and only, accidentally, happened to be in settings and opened software update too be very surprised to see that there was a notice in there to update.


Have you tried opening software update just to see if that’s what you’re being reminded to do? Which iOS version are you using?
