iPhone Email Badge missing in Notification Settings

Apple Engineers told me this will be fixed by the time iOS 16 is released but not in the current build.

I could not wait so I rebuilt my phone. Using a backup brought the issue back, but setting it up from scratch fixed the issue. It took a while. You can either restore to another iphone and use that as a template for rebuilding your phone or screenshot every folder.

I suggest you wait if you can.

I deleted my mail app and then reinstalled it from the App Store and everything went back to normal.

Deleting and adding back in the App appears to have solved the issue. Thanks!

Removing the app and re-installing it fixed it for me as well. Thanks!

Is the badge count correct. Mine came back too. I have been working with apple. Mine are gone after a restore also. The problem is in the backup. Even if I restore the backup without any apps the issue is there. Its almost all badge counts. They slowly come back but wrong. I figured out they tend to come back at the number they were on before the update to 15.4.

As of yesterday they are not signing 15.3..1 anymore but I spent a couple days testing. If I go back to 15.3.1 its fine but the second I upgrade the issue comes back.

If you can go to

https://feedbackassistant.apple.com/

and post a bug on it that would be great.

Apple tells me the more people that report this the better.

I have also been told we may have to wait until the next major OS to see a fix.

remove the mail it by uninstalling it.

and reinstall it again through the App Store.

badges should return

Deleting and reinstalling seems to do the trick. I forgot you could do that.

Hey Samic009,

If you’ve already restored your iPhone and set it up as new but the issue is persisting, then you would want to reach out to Apple Support at the following link so they can look further into this with you:

Take care. 

Same here. No badge at all now. I have spoken to Apple about my feedback and everyone should report it but I have been told this will not be fixed in iOS 15. The next generation iOS will fix the issue. Tune into WWDC tomorrow for more info on that as I can not mention it any further here under apple rules.

If it's just the mail app to fix should work where you just reinstall it but for me it's all apps even third-party apps. The fix worked but having hundreds of apps it took a long time delete everyone and reinstall them. The other issue is you don't know how many other apps are not showing notifications if you're not getting them on regular basis.

Mine started when I updated it to iOS 15.5, updated it and now it doesn’t show any count what so ever. I am a cell phone technician, own a cell phone repair shop and tried every single thing I can think of to no avail. Hopefully enough people complain to get this resolved in a new update. It’s very annoying not knowing if you got any new mail unless you open the app or turn on notifications. But that will drive you crazy with dings.

Hey I have the same issue. Have reported to Apple via the link. Hope this gets fixed quickly as this is really annoying

Can you post your feedback ID number. I will mention it in mine. You can also mention mine. FB9907619

The mail badge number disappeared from my app as well as the option to select badges from notification setting ever since the last update and it’s totally aggravating. Is this permanent?
