Why
The library that
expo-notifications
is using to clear the badge -ShortcutBadger
does not clear the badge count correctly for some reason. The documentation says that eitherclearCount(context, 0)
orresetCount(context)
should reset the badge, but it does not - even though the call returnstrue
.Instead, we can use the Android API to clear the badge count.
Solution from flutter/flutter#25030 (comment), albeit in Java
