Notification Badge

A visual indicator, often represented by a number, that appears on icons or buttons within apps or platforms to signify unread messages, alerts, or updates. This feature is commonly used in digital communication and social media apps, email clients, and other software to draw the user’s attention to new or pending notifications. For example, a red badge with a number might appear on an email app icon to indicate the number of unread messages. Notification badges serve as a convenient and efficient way for users to quickly identify and prioritize their unread or pending messages or tasks, enhancing communication and task management in various digital environments.
