Hi georja35,


It sounds like you're looking to add the badge app icon for notifications. You can check the settings to ensure "Badges" is turned on. The section quoted below in the article here Use notifications on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch has a nice visual.


"Change alert styles


  1. Go to Settings and tap Notifications.
  2. Select an app under Notification Style. 
  3. Under Alerts, choose the alert style that you want. If you turn on Allow Notifications, choose when you want the notifications delivered — immediately or in the scheduled notification summary.

With iOS 15 and iPadOS 15, you can turn on Critical Alerts so notifications come through even if your iPhone is muted or you have a Focus set up.
