Settings/General/Software Update.
Thanks for stopping by the Apple Support Communities. I see that you've recently updated to iOS 12.0.1, and now you see a badge app icon on your Settings app, indicating there is one notification. I'm happy to help!
While the badge app icon does appear when an iOS update is available, it may appear in other instances. For example, you may need to enter your Apple ID password for iCloud and/or other Apple services like the iTunes & App Store, or there might be an update for your wireless carrier ( Update your carrier settings on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support ). I recommend selecting the Settings app to see what the notification is related to.
If it is indicating there is an iOS update, force close the Settings app: How to force an app to close on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support , then restart your iPhone: Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support .
If you still need help, don't hesitate to respond back.
Cheers!
I am having the same issue with my iPad, and yes, I have tried all of your suggestions and none have worked. I’ve also tried restarting the iPad, as well as powering it down and leaving it off for several hours.
thanks,

I am having the same issue after updating. I have gone through all settings in the settings icon and cannot find where this is at.
This update was completed on my iPad.
Has a solution been provided yet?
HI , when i click to sign out it asks if i want to "keep a copy of your data on this iPhone?" and that DATA REMOVED FROM THIS IPHONE WILL STILL BE AVAILABLE IN ICLOUD. in fine print below it states my photos any documents will be removed from the phone.
should i still sign out??
If you choose to remove the data from your phone when you next log in to iCloud all of it will be restored. If you keep it on the phone when you next log in the phone will sync to iCloud, which will take some time, and sometimes results in duplicate contacts and calendar entries.
To be safe, log in to https://icloud.com and verify that all of your information is there, then log out on your phone and remove the data. When you next log in it will be restored, but do it when you have a fast Wi-Fi connection so the data restore goes faster.
This is the fix. Thank you.
I have same issue and tried all suggested solutions by apple but is not working.
@Lawrence Finch - Thanks Lawrence but I don't believe you read everyone's post thoroughly. The issue we are experiencing is after we complete the upgrade the 1 indication does not go away and nothing is left to upgrade. Nothing shows in the settings menu to fix in order to make the 1 indication go away.
Possible Fix for Everyone:
After searching other forums online I came across a possible fix that worked for me. I signed out my iCloud from my iPad and Sign back In. The 1 indicator went away on both my iPads. Seems that the 1 indicator is just a bug that stays on the settings icon for some users.
Settings > Clicked on my Name > (Scroll down) Sign Out
Then simply sign back into your iCloud and the 1 indicator should be gone.
I’m having the same difficulty- a solution that works would be great!
