App Store Icon on Ipad not showing red dot number of updates available.

I have both my iPhone and my iPad runnin ios15. On the iPad the App Store does not show the red bubble with number of updates available either on the icon or when I open it. It will update the apps if I scroll down to that section but it doesn't alert anywhere anymore.


I can't seem to find the answer that fixes this.


Thanks.

Hey there, brn2rnjk1!


Thanks so much for using Apple Support Communities.


We definitely want to help you make sure you're kept in the loop when your apps have available updates. It sounds like this may be a notifications setting. If so, we would recommend following these steps here: Use notifications on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. If you are able to check this setting, you'd want to make sure that "Badges" is enabled for the App Store. Badges refers to the red notification with a number indicating the amount of notifications pertaining to that particular app.


We hope that this information is helpful.


​Have a great day!
