[Q] Badge support for G-Mail (other than custom launcher)

[ZEDEK]

Peace All...

Does the Note 8 NOT support native notification badges for G-mail anymore?
I've noticed that there is no G-Mail notification badge. Is anyone using the STOCK Samsung launcher notice this?
---Also, PLEASE, before you make suggestions-- I am aware of Nova Launcher and Telsa Unread and every other launcher that supports notification badges---at this point in time I do not wish to use any of those launchers, I want to give Samsung's Launcher a try. My question is for those still using TouchWiz if they notice the same thing or is it just my phone.

I am having the same issue right now. Also, trying to figure out what combination of settings will make the Notification LED go on without vibrating the phone in vibration mode when I get an email.

I read from an S8 thread that to try Rad Unread from the Play store. It works.

Now I have to figure out the LED/Vibrate issue for Gmail.

For some reason i cant download Rad Unread from play store. Maybe I have to side load it

Interesting. I loaded it from the Play store on my laptop. It's been working well.

I think I either have an app or a theme that is blocking it---the only thing i can think of is bxActions (Bixby remap button)

Perhaps that is the case. I am running stock everything. I haven't gotten to Bixby yet... LOL So many options to check and configure, I can't get used to this after 2 years of IOS.
