This module adds a badge with a number next to notification icons, when the notification has a quantity (e.g. messages).
This is a built-in Android functionality, this module works as enabler for this function.
Additionally, this modules has the option to add such a number to a notification, even while it does not have a quantity:
The numbers are automatically either fetched from the notification title, summary or by counting the times an app adds content to a notification.
It can be manually 'arranged' for specific apps, so that they use a user-specified method (or none) when causing problems.
You can customize the displayed number, get currently the following variations:
- Opaque, white background.
- Transparent white background.
- Smaller number.
- Device default.
