The badge app icon setting for each app in the notifications settings is no longer there in iOS 13. Anyone know how to turn it off/on now?!?
In particular my Apple Mail app is not showing how many unread emails I have, so I want to turn that on.

Hello Rob H - CO,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you’re looking to have badge notifications on for your apps. I’m happy to help.
You should still have the option for “badges” in your notification settings in iOS 13. You can find steps below:
Use notifications on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
On your iPhone, you’ll want to tap Settings > Notifications > [App] and make sure “Allow Notifications” is enabled. From there you should have the option to select “Badges.”
For Mail specifically, if you have more than one account, you’ll have to tap each account before you see that option.
Let me know if that helps.
Take care.

So I actually had both of those settings for the Mail app on my phone already.
So I tried turning my phone off and back on again and now the badge app icon is showing up!
(Typical software solution that, as a software developer with 30 years of experience, I should have tried earlier!)
How do you turn badge app icon off/on in iOS 13?
