Notification badges at AppStore icon

Hi guys!

I have a problem with notification badges at AppStore icon on my iPhone. When I have apps that can be updated I don't have any kind of notification an AppStore icon. I switch on all types of notifications at the Settings but nothing has changed. Who had the same problem? Would you tell me, how I can solve this problem. Thanks!

Hey there Denis_Academy,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.


We understand you're not receiving a notification badge for App Store updates, is that correct?


If the App Store is set to automatically install updates, there will not be a badge icon. If you would like a badge icon, make sure that you turn off manually update apps. See here: How to manually update apps on your Apple device


That should help. Let us know if you have any questions.


Cheers!
