Hi,
There are two more options:
– Using AquaMail’s “message counter” widget.
The widget has four visual themes and can be configured to “point to” a specific account or a folder. You can find it in the same place as all other widgets, please start by long pressing on an empty spot on the home screen.
– Switching to a third party launcher that has this capability.
Apex Launcher Pro (you will need to enable “External notifiers” in its settings, under Advanced)
Nova Launcher Prime (you’ll need to install Tesla Unread, no other configuration is necessary)
Smart Launcher (you’ll need to install Smart Launcher Notifications).
