Badge app icons and multiple emails

I have 3 different Gmail email addresses attached to my gmail app. It’s shows that I have over 400 emails in app badge (number showing on my app). I only want to show badges for one of the 3 emails….not all three. How do I do that?

I see how this works with the “Mail” app but this does not seem to change the badges showing on my “Gmail” app. The “Gmail” app is the one I use.

Hi Cstair127,


It sounds like you'd like badges to only appear for one email account. To customize your Mail notifications, use the steps here:

1. In the Settings app, tap Mail.
2. Tap Notifications.
3. Tap Customize Notifications.
4. Tap the email account.
5. Turn on the settings that you want, like Alerts or Badges.
When you turn on Badges, the number of unread emails in your inbox appears above the Mail app on your Home Screen.

Take care.
