The Messages icon on my iPad has a flag showing I have 8 unread messages. I don't have any messages on the iPad. All have deleted from it. My iPhone and my iMac both correctly show no unread messages. How do I make the erroneous flag go away and correctly display only when I do have an unread message?
Using iPad Air running iOS 12.4.7

You are welcome!
That was way too simple. Thanks. I turned messages off, rebooted iPad and then turned messages back on. Voila! unread messages flag was gone.
