Voicemail/Missed Call Icon won't go away

The only way that I have found to clear it is to actually call the number then hang up right away. This seems to be a bug that was introduced in the last update

Alright, go to Settings > Notification > Phone and disable Allow Notifications and Re-enable it. After this force restart the device. Or just a normal restart. Restarting the device will re calibrate the system hardware settings as well as flush and clear out all error logs that maybe causing the issue.

Try it, it worked for me!

I had the same problem and the only fix I found is basically call back and disconnect the call, that seems to get rid off the notification icon of 1 missed call or however many missed calls one has.

Yeah this issue is extremely annoying. I also have to dial the missed number to make the badge icon go away.

i logged out of iCloud & back in trying to fix this problem after iOS 13.1.2 by 13.1.3 the problem still exists & new problems after logging out of iCloud & back in with photos major problems & contacts. These are problems never had before iOS 13 update. Apple isn’t addressing these issues at all. Totally annoying to have notifications for missed calls alert red dot with no missed calls after deleting the number & blocking it. With all the robots calling an iPhone phone number. No one wants to see notifications for calls they didn’t answer & blocked & deleted. Nothing is fixing this except turning off phone notifications. This happened with settings notifications after update was done red dot wouldn’t go away. I do not suggest logging out & back into iCloud unless you want more problems.

That might work for notifications not going away for phone calls. It’s not possible for settings notifications not going away after update when there are no more updates to be done. There is a flaw in iOS 13 and right now 13.2.3 has not fixed the notification issue. Never had to do these types of things before to fix notifications. I have in past turned off notifications for apps I find annoying notifying me about things I don’t care about. Phone calls, messages, settings update iOS are important and want those notifications to be accurate.

Call which number? I have deleted everything and also tried the steps listed above.

I have the same problem since the last iOS update - any time I get a missed call, the red icon won't go away for a long time - I've tried reboots, resets and the other things mentioned above and the phone seems to randomly decide to clear the icon unrelated to what i try.

Having same issue along with many others and every time a missed call. So basically according to the fixes suggested it is a phone restart every time a missed call is received otherwise a compounding number accumulated on the badge making the notification useless. Infuriating Apple
