TeslaUnread for Nova Launcher

A very necessary app as I am coming from iphone where we got these badges automatically. I only wish it worked better as it often slow to update the badges. Example: I read all of my Snapchats but still have a badge showing 3 unread. Anointing as this is a feature of a phone that I view as a necessity, not a luxury.

Got it to work, though had to hunt down many settings to do it. Tells you how many unread emails you have, which is great if you systematically read or mark as read every email you get. For those that ignore some emails on the basis of subject, it would be much more useful to be given a count of new, rather than unread, emails - everything more recent than the last read email, or everything more recent than the last time the user looked at their email, something like that. It would also be handy to get a count on the number of emails that are new/unread and have a particular label. With its current functionality it's doing something through the launcher that otherwise gets done through a widget, which is fine but not special. It needs something extra to be more than just OK.

Huawei Honor Note 8. This app has started showing phantom message counts in chomp sms. Can't get to the bottom off it. About to uninstall and reinstall. Really getting on my nerves. Keeps doing it regularly now. Any ideas? *edit* unread messages where in default messaging app. Also doesn't always show unread badges on other apps e.g.emails. sometimes it does sometimes it doesn't?

Works well mainly, but since last update it incorrectly shows 1 unread for SMS and I cannot rectify this. I have been through the configuration and rebooted, and reinstalled several times. Would rate 5 stars otherwise. Have unfortunately dropped my rating to 3 stars as this SMS count us still happening and has become rather irritating...

It's great addition to Nova Launcher although non native apps don't work as nicely as expected. With BlackBerry Hub Tesla shows only new unread messages count. When notification is dismissed there's no count of unread emails even if there are plenty. Once fixed and shows total amount of unread messages in Hub I'll give the full 5⭐

Been using Nova Prime for years. It's the only launcher that works 98% of the time. Support is normally stellar and its always up to date. Best Tesla unread has issues. Ghost notifications drive me insane. My email shows 45 unread messages even after, wiping data, wiping dalvik cache Uninstalling app and even wiping data and deleting email accounts! What is there left to do?

Almost perfect! The only drawback from this is that it can't read notifications on Messenger by Facebook. There's no uncount badge/number(s) that show beside the Messenger icon. Otherwise, I'll give it a perfect 5 stars.

Doesn't work for me at all. No badges appear on any app ever. This is less than great, since I love Nova Launcher, but I just got used to the icon badges in my S7 Edge native launcher...

Disappointing. Barely functions. I love Nova, so I purchased Nova Prime to install TeslaUnread to get notifications. Only Alto and WhatsApp seem to work, and then not always correctly. Customer service did not seem at all interested in responding or resolving the problem. Don't waste your money. I'll change the rating when they respond to me and fix the bugs.

The badge counts are regularly wrong or non existent. You have to turn them on and off again to reset them which is pretty annoying. This is mainly and issue with WhatsApp. A fix would be nice as it's been like this for months

This app crashes multiple times and day and is quickly becoming worthless. Why in the world can't a badge count be built directly into Nova Pro Launcher?? I'm close to saying hell with Nova Launcher entirely based on their external badge counter being worthless for more than a day at most after reinstalling it!

After I read my unread FB notifications the FB app icon still shows I have the same number of unread notifications. Tesla unread used to work. Now I have to clear the app's data to reset the count to zero. I just dropped it another star. Text Message app count is not correct.

Doesn't work at all. No unread badges whatsoever. You wouldn't even know it was installed. I also find it a little scary to give it so many permissions to my phone. Who knows what this developer is doing with whatever personal information they collect.

I love how this one does its job. However I would love this app more if there is an option where users can personalize badges. Like we can use images as badges. A lot of the people who uses this app wants that feature so badly.

Works. Pity it can't really be customised. Others mentioned it, I'll just repeat: I really don't care how many unread emails there are - achieving 'inbox zero' has never been my goal. I want to know how many came in in the last n (customisable) hours - I do want to know if there are any unread texts (SMS, WhatsApp, Signal, FB Messenger as well as missed calls). Someone suggested creating special, possibly live - tile like icons (counters). Wouldn't really bother with this were it not part of the greatest launcher - I just love Nova and just don't understand why Huawei's EMUI needs icons the size of a (small) football field.

It's great, except for one little problem: the notification icon will not go above 1, so even if I have more than 1 message, it will only show 1. I will raise my rating to five stars once this is fixed. -UPDATE: I've noticed that the icon will go above one. The icon does not display the number of messages I have, but the number of people that have messaged me. I will change my rating to five stars if you change this to show the number of messages that I have. My messaging app is the Samsung Galaxy S7 EDGE message app. Other than that the app is great. Thank you, have a wonderful day, and May God Bless.

It does not comply with Google Accessibility guideline. Hence, it is not accessible for the blind person like me. when we toggle things in the Tesla Unread Plugin, we get no indication whether it is set to on or off. emailing the Dev has no impact. if you follow the proper accessibility guideline, it would be universally acceptable.

It doesn't work with the icons of the app Zedge nor with other kind of types of icons that I want to use in Nova Launcher... At less until the last update that you put... I don't know what happened, in the past just to work well...

I love this app, but I have one issue. When receiving a text, the unread bubble pops up, but it will not disappear after clicking/reading/responding to the text. It instead seems to disappear at random. Every other app this is activated on works perfectly otherwise.

Wish the counter would go higher then 999+. Im a little weird and I enjoy seeing my 12,000+ emails on the icon haha. Not sure if this is limited by my device since on my stock laucher, the badge only shows 999+ as well.

Works fine, but why not implementing the ability to choose if we want the number inside the badge or not? It's be less messy looking like Android O and less tricky than putting all the same color in the settings :)

This plug-in does not work for all the apps it is turned on for. It always works for my Gmail & stock Dialer apps, as well as for every 3rd party apps i've installed - such as Pintrest, Facebook, & Ebay - but only rarely works for my stock SMS/MMS Messenger apps, & it NEVER works for my stock (Visual) Voicemail apps along with a couple of other stock apps! Obviously this is rather disappointing that this plug-in works better with 3rd party apps than with the stock/pre-installed/factory-installed apps, but it's currently the only decent flag/notifier available so i'm forced to suffer through it & hope it will get fixed one day! (hint hint, devs!!)

Usually great, but had to remove it recently when it caused massive battery drain and heat. I'm on a custom 6.0.1 TouchWiz ROM. I'll try again when either the app or the ROM update. They've always played nice before, oh well...

Used to be grt, but has stopped working with my mail app which is a big minus after an update. There have been several since which haven't fixed it. May have to take out the prime version of the launcher because of this and go back to Google. Sad

After updated to 7.1.2 the unread number showing bit late for certain apps (Whatsapp) or even not showing correct number like TypeApp application. Before I used in Marsmelow everything work fine.

Won't even show the number of Gmail messages I have received. If the Devs can't be bothered fixing this, why should people be bothered using it? I have had this for several years on a Note 4, S6 and S5 and all worked fine. I emailed the Devs and followed the instructions, but it will not show the badge count on Gmails on my S7 edge. It does show the count on the SMS and missed calls, but not Gmail. After informing them their instructions still didn't work, they are now ignoring my request for further help. Their app, in my opinion, is broken and they will not fix it, why?

I purchased Nova Prime for 5 bucks just so I could use this app and have "badges" for my unread texts, emails, missed calls, etc.... I haven't seen a badge yet!!! I'm using Galaxy S8+. Please advise TeslaCoil

It doesn't work with the dialer app at all, also it works with inbox app if there are notifications in the notification panel, if I dismiss them, the badges are gone. These are the most important apps for me, please fix this. I'm using Huawei GR5 2017

Usually works fine but sometimes my unread counts seem to freeze and not update anymore until I open TeslaUnread settings once. After that it works again until the problem reappears at random (every few days)

Most of the time it works.. But sometimes it is not showing the number count even there is an unread message. This happens to me for whatsapp.. Please look into this..

Unreliable. And no support from developers. Displayed count value loses synchronisation with actual count. You have to switch off/on the legend. Sent a number or emails to developers but no joy.

The 5.0.7 update doesn't work well with Facebook anymore. Not until I open FB App did I find several pending notifications. Permission granted to TeslaUnread already. Edit: Reverted back to 5.0.6 instantly work again. Edit: 5.0.8 works well with FB again. Thx.

App has issues with the Samsung Gallery app always showing 3 unread, and unable to make it disappear despite of the options (tested on Galaxy S6). Otherwise good must-have app for any user of Nova Launcher.

Been using this for years. Use to work great. Now nunberic email badges disappear after few seconds. The dynamic works fine though. Already tried clearing cache, removing app, etc.

Badge count is not showing up for SMS when my contacts who have Samsung Galaxy S7 Actives. Badge Count works for all other apps as well as SMS as long as the sender of the SMS did not send the SMS from an S7 Active.

It's broke with Samsung Messages on Samsung devices at the moment. Completely unreliable, while just about every other launcher I've tried with integrated notification counts work fine.

Shows unread badges for most apps but not for whatsapp. Was working on my previous phone buy suddenly doesn't work for my Samsung s8+. Would rate 5 star if this was fixed.

Been using Missed It! for my nova launcher, but the recent Nova launcher update forced me to use this instead. This app needs more permission and instead of showing the sms unread count, badge shows the number of contact who texted me.

For Microsoft Outlook app the unread count was showing for only inbox or focused inbox. if any unread mails are sitting inside the other folders then the unread number on icon is incorrect.

But after a while it doesn't update the unread count? Had to restart phone to get it working again. Update: the devs gone into hiding? - 1 star.
