The email counter doesn't really match up with, for example, Nova and TeslaUnread, which don't work on widgets.
There is no "the" email counter.There are several:- On the app's icon?- In notifications?- On the app's main screen - list of accounts?- In message lists in the title bar?- In message lists in the side panel?- In message counter widget?- In message list widget?Which one did you mean?If you meant "on the app's icon" and the phone is a Samsung with Android 8.0 - this is addressed in the FAQ near the end.
This is what I have on my Samsung S8 with 8.0.A pretty good match I'd say (the intensity differs a bit, but it's different in Samsung's 7.0 IIRC).Please try app settings -> widget -> unread count style -> Samsung.
Blue -> there are unread messages but they're not "new"Orange -> there are "new" unread messages (you've not opened the respective folders to see what those new messages are)
