IOS - Can you manually adjust badge on app icon?

My app is just a brochure. Users can download compatible files to view (DOC, PPT, PDF, XLS, MP4, etc). If a newer version of a previously downloaded file is available I'd just like to update the badge icon on the app to alert the user their downloaded resources have updates.
So far all I see as a way to update a badge icon (outside previous ANEs that are said to be malfunctioning) is the new AIR 3.4 push notification updates. I see you can register to receive PUSH and if RemoteNotifier receives a notification event of type RemoteNotificationEvent.TOKEN it can adjust the badge?
I only wish to set the app icons badge number manually from inside the app, after I determine if there's any resources that need updating. I don't need push services. Is there an easy means that I'm simply not seeing to adjust the badge, such as somehow faking a RemoteNotificationEvent.TOKEN event or any classes I'm not seeing inside flash.notifications.*?
Thanks for any tips!

You are mostly correct except the fact that on iOS, the OS may handle the notification and application may never get to know about it.RemoteNotificationEvent.NOTIFICATION is fired only in following two scenarios:
The application was in foreground when remote notification was received.
The application was not in foreground when notification was received and as a result of the presented notification, the user taps the action button of the alert.
If the notification is delivered when the application isn’t running in the foreground, the system presents the notification, displaying an alert, badging an icon, perhaps playing a sound. And hence the event will not be dispatched. In other words, this event will NEVER be fired if application was in background(sleeping/dead) and user ignores the notification.

Ios 8 app store updates badge icon not resetting

my iphone 6 is showing on the app store badge icon there are 7 updates available. Opening the app and going to updates, they all appear as OPEN.
I cannot get rid of the icon without resorting to disabling it via notifications under settings.
I updated to ios 8.02 and it still appears. Also tried the trick of tapping a TAB 10 times to refresh the app but the update count reappears soon after.
Have tried to discover any other solution but none available. Dont know if this has been reported to Apple as a bug.

Hello … firstly I am not technology minded & don't know the jargon … just gone from iPhone 3 to 6 !!
Solved this problem by: Settings icon, choose iTunes & App Store turn off all selections for automatic updates
Turn phone off & on.
Then reactivated the automatic update selections.
Problem was solved.
Hope I explained process clearly enough.

Reminders App: badge icon wrong count.

The badge icon that displays the number of reminder alerts is a welcome addition for me in iOS 6. However, I'm somewhat annoyed that it always seems to be incorrect. After a new reminder alert takes place in notification centre, you would expect the badge icon to update, but it doesn't. Opening the App and closing it does nothing either. The only way to update the count, is to re-boot the iPhone. Can anyone tell me how I can submit a bug report for this? Many thanks!

Hi, I wanna share my experience with the wrong badge count.
I had all the task completed but even deleting from Reminders I had number 1 on badge stuck on the App. I had it for months since yesterday when I could reset the counter, here what I did.
1) Initially Reminders was synced with iCloud;
2) In Settings I set up "All Reminders" the Sync;
3) I turned off the syncing on iCloud (Settings Menu);
4) I launched the Reminders app and immediately in the Today I saw the very old task (hidden until that);
5) I deleted the hidden task and the wrong badge disappeared immediately;
6) I turned on the sync with iCloud and now it works flawlessy.
I don't know if it can help but I hope so.

HT202297 The Reminders app on my OS X version 10.9 doesn't seem to have badge icons for apps that are overdue. How do I get the badge icons for the app?

Being overtly organised, I assign due times to all my reminders on the reminder app. Recently, I realised that the badge icons (detailing the number of overdue reminders) do not pop up anymore. How do I get them to reappear again?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
There are two Applications folders: /Applications (in the root level of the hard drive) and ~/Applications (in your user folder).
If you have a look at the bottom part of the screenshot, you can see where Chess is stored, and it indicates that it's stored in /Applications, so you are looking for applications in the wrong folder.
Open a Finder window, go to Finder menu (on the menu bar) > Preferences > Sidebar, and mark Applications. Then, close the Preferences window and you will be able to access to the Applications folder in the Finder sidebar. Another option would be to go to View menu (on the menu bar) and type:
/Applications

there are many reasons not to update apps, wow, you probably just buy anything people tell you!! Sometimes you lose parts of an app with an update, like when shazam started limiting how many checks you could do. if you didn't update you would still be able to have unlimited downloads. OF course eventually you will have to either update or it wont work with a new operating system roll out , but that buys you a lot of time to re-evaluate shazam and see if you really think it's all that or not. if you would have updated your software right away like apple wanted you to last year, you would have been one of the millions that had all their info posted all over the web for every crook, hacker and thief to look over!! I;m guessing from your reply you probably are one of the ones that was security compromised. there are just 2 reasons out of a whole list of reasons why someone might not want to update their apps!! If you don't have anything helpful to say when someone asks a question, your not doing them or anyone a favor just zip and move along to something you might be able to help someone with

HT3576 Badge icon notifications

I want the badge icons that pop up on my screen when I have a message but don't want it to mark the message as read if I click close... Any way around this?

yeah an option would be good.
i'm still not sure myself whether this is intentional or a bug. especially as if you go in to the app and mark a podcast episode as played then go back to the full episode list again and then go back and mark the same one again as unplayed, then exit the app, it then shows that change on the badge app icon count, which as it's not a recent download but just recently marked as unplayed does seem a little buggy to me.

How to add the wifi app (or icon) in notifications

On my Iphone 3gs, under settings>notifications, there is a list of icons taken from my home page from which I am to receive notification alerts. They were added there automatically I guess because I did not list them. I am wanting to add the wifi icon under notifications so I can be alerted when I have entered a wifi area. I do not find my wifi icon anywhere. Where do I find it and how do I list it under notifications. I searched and found an instruction to check "customize" under notifications but I am not given that option.
Thank you for your help.
Frances

The iPhone will automatically alert you when it detects wifi if you have Settings>Wi-Fi>Ask to Join Networks turned to ON.

Unread badge icon

The unread badge icon won't go away and I've tried rebooting the phone, killing the app, and turning off badge notification and nothing is working, suggestions?

Hey All!! I believe I have a fix for those who - like me - could not get it resolved with the steps above. I just fixed it on mine. And trust me - I tried each of the steps above several times - which SHOULD have worked but ... we are indeed talking about picky and delicate iPhones here, hehe. Ok - so ...
When the step of turning off the badge alert did not work, it got me thinking ... iMessage has several settings in the iPhone settings area. So let me play with those. And sure enough - the first setting change fixed it. Here is what ya do ...
1. Go to Settings
2. Simply Scroll Down to "Messages"
3. Turn Off the Very First Option - "iMessage" At the Top
4. Leave Settings and Check Home Screen to See the Badge Has Disappeared
5. Return Back to Message Settings and Turn "iMessage" Back On
Voila! I hope this works for some folks!!

HT4528 red badge icon

Hey i'm just wondering why my red badge icon is not appearing anymore for my system update as well as for my app store when my updates are availiable. This has been happening from since IOS 7.1.2 and i know my apps are on in the notification center so i dont know thats causing the problem.

HI,
I am not sure that would work.
All it holds is the Status Messages you have created and Saved
Uploaded with Skitch!
It does not even hold the Default Messages that are held in the app itself.
Having a missing .plist at start up will cause Messages (or iChat) to recreate it.
This might be enough to get the main .plist to be rewritten and may have worked things out that way.

Badge icon disappears after 2.0 Update

After installing the Podcasts 2.0 update I noticed that the badge icon for the number of unread podcasts had disappeared. I am an experienced iPhone user and went through the normal trouble shooting steps of syncing, uninstalling an reinstalling, but the bange icon always disappears after applicaton of the Podcasts 2.0 update.
Has anybody elso noticed this behavior?

yeah an option would be good.
i'm still not sure myself whether this is intentional or a bug. especially as if you go in to the app and mark a podcast episode as played then go back to the full episode list again and then go back and mark the same one again as unplayed, then exit the app, it then shows that change on the badge app icon count, which as it's not a recent download but just recently marked as unplayed does seem a little buggy to me.

How do you fix certain app notifications that don't appear or appear twice?

On my iPhone or iPad, sometimes there are notifications that don't appear or appear twice. For example, I have a Fox News app. When I get an alert on my phone while it is locked, the same exact news notification appears twice in a row when I go to look at my phone. Also, there are times when app notifications won't show. For example, I have Bloomberg on my iPhone and my iPad. When there is a headline, the notification shows on my iPad but not my iPhone. The settings on both devices are the exact same in terms of notification center and lock screen being activated. Neither device is jail broken and both are running iOS 6.

I have also started experiencing this problem. I have tried the following with no help.
Reseting the phone
signing out of my Apple account and signing in again
tapping the waiting icon to pause it and tapping it again
deleting the app and trying to reload it - still says waiting
The only thing that has allowed me to update my apps was to update them in itunes on my laptop and then sync my phone.
This has to be a unique IOS issue, so many people are having this problem. I wonder if it is a Cloud issue?

Strange icon inthe notification line

For last 3 days there is appearing a strange icon in notification line of my phone.it looks like claw of acrab the bottom of which is squized by hand. Some number is also appearing beside it and the number is increasing daily

I don't recognize that icon, but it is some third party application you have installed on your BlackBerry.
Check ALL of your apps, likely a messaging or instant messaging application it is increasing constantly.

Can Apple Employees hack my iCloud/iMessage/iTunes/Private Apps/Photo Sharing?

Can Apple Employees hack my iCloud/iMessage/iTunes/Private Apps/Photo Sharing? I was recently in the Apple Store and was asked for my Apple Id/password, and to enter it onto the stores iPad. Coincidently, my email associated with my Apple ID was hacked, and numerous times a day I will be asked for my Apple ID password for iMessage and iCloud. I finally changed my email and password for APPLE ID and now literally every 45 seconds a screen for iCloud pops up. What can be accessed using my iTunes account? I had personal and private data including bank accounts, photos, location enabled GPS for most apps. Is it possible that an Apple employee (with good reason) could get a hold of this information??

We have become familiar faces since I go into the Apple Store and we know some of the same people through mutual friends. Everything I know about her she has told me, and mostly just innocent conversation at the apple store. I'm not going to report someone is stalking me if I dont know for a FACT that she is stalking me. It didnt catch my attention until a few friends who don't know her, just the situation started noticing it. I changed my apple ID so hopefully it stops, but like I said - it came to the point of being too frequent to be a coincidence. I guess re-routing back to my original question ....... Can an Apple Employee hack into my account and download the apps under my Apple ID and use my iMessage, iCloud, ect.... I don't understand why it is such a secret! its either a yes or no question. I don't feel comfortable knowing that I have had devices (not my own) that have been granted permission for iMessage (I received the notification on my ipad that another ipad had turned on imessage under my apple ID), and at the time I was not aware that someone would desire the need to log into my account to read my imessages - or could actually do it? I'm very very secretive about passwords, and would not even write on the forum about this if I didn't think it were possible. I appreciate all of your responses, I truely do but this has been going on since before March when I first created the post so understandably its been on the back of my mind for quite some time!
