A new flutter plugin project.
On iOS, the notification permission is required to update the badge. It is automatically asked when the badge is added or removed.
Please also add the following to your Info.plist:
<key>UIBackgroundModes</key>
<array>
<string>remote-notification</string>
</array>
On Android, no official API exists to show a badge in the launcher. But some devices (Samsung, HTC...) support the feature.
First, you just have to import the package in your dart files with:
import 'package:flutter_badger/flutter_badger.dart';
Then you can add a badge:
FlutterBadger.updateBadgeCount(1);
Remove a badge:
FlutterBadger.removeBadge();
Or just check if the device supports this feature with:
FlutterBadger.isAppBadgeSupported();
