How does the Badge Count work?

How does the Badge Count work?

Beeper shows an unread badge in your inbox and individual chat network spaces in the sidebar, indicating how many unread messages you have in each respective category. 

The sidebar currently displays the following categories in addition to all the chat network accounts you have connected: Inbox, Archive, Requests, Low Priority, Reminders, Send Later. 

In the example below, you'll see that there are 2 unread chats in the Inbox and 1 in Requests. While the unread messages in the inbox come from WhatsApp, the WhatsApp icon in the sidebar does not show an unread badge in it to avoid redundancy. 

Home screen and Dock badge count

The unread badge count on the app dock icon will include the number of unread chats only from the inbox.
