Macbook imessage badge still showing after replying to message

I have recently noticed that once I reply to the message with quick reply it the imessage icon still shows that the message is unread after I have replied to the message, is there anything that I can do to fix this or do I have to wait for the update?

Hey there nin1120,


We understand the badge on the Messages app on your Mac is not updating when you use the quick reply option. We'll be happy to help.


To begin, we'd recommend a standard restart. You can reference the steps here: How to turn your Mac on or off


Let's also toggle the badge notification off and back on. Check out those steps here: Change Notifications preferences on Mac


Lastly, let's make sure your Mac is fully up-to-date: How to update the software on your Mac


And if it still doesn't work, reach out to Apple directly and they can dig further into this with you: Get Support


We hope this helps. Cheers!
