App Icon Badge Count Updates via API

ActivitySmith App Icon Badge Count showing 8333

You can now set any number you care about on your ActivitySmith app icon through the ActivitySmith API. Track MRR, user count, stock price, or any other value you want to keep in view.

Set the badge value

Set the number from any backend, script, automation, or AI agent through the API, SDKs, or CLI

await activitysmith.badgeCount(8333);

Clear the badge

To clear the badge, set its value to 0

await activitysmith.badgeCount(0);

Target specific devices

Use channels to target specific team members or devices. A channel-scoped update changes the badge only for matching devices.

await activitysmith.badgeCount(3, {
channels: ["sales", "customer-success"],
});

Availability

Available now across the API, SDKs, and CLI.

This feature is available in the ActivitySmith iOS app version 1.13.0 and newer.
