I wrote MSC4076 as a proposal for fixing this. |

This has got worse due to synapse consistently overcounting notifs recently. This may be a regression in element-hq/synapse#16756 |

V1.102 released today reverts this issue, and we're seeing reports of better badge counts |
Same here, nicely done! 👏 |

Steps to reproduce
Rageshakes are stuffed with complaints about the application badge count being wrong - either stuck off, or stuck on (showing 1..n notifs), or flickering every time a push notif arrives, only to immediately turn off again.
The application badge should show you the number of rooms with unread push notifs (e.g. mentions). (Not the number of missed notifications, given it's much more useful to know how many different conversations are trying to get your attention, than that you have "one or more" busy conversation happening).
