Q: How to remove OTA Settings badge after delete of IOS 8.0.1 software update from storage
Running iOS 8 I had downloaded and not installed IOS 8.0.1 software update. A "1" Badge appears as expected on my Settings icon. I then removed the software from storage. Settings->General->Usage->Manage Storage but the badge was not removed. Things I have already tried that did not work:
- Checked for software update
- Rebooted phone
iPhone 5s, iOS 8

So with the release 8.0.2 the badge went away once I updated.
I did however download, watching it until it completed. Then chose "LATER" before the timer ran out.
Then went back to install it. I am not sure if forcing later is needed, but I wanted to make sure it would force it to update the badge to "1" once I went to install it. If someone else who has the problem tries it without choosing "LATER" please update the thread for others to let them know if it was needed.
