Hi community,

I’ve recently discovered a really cool feature introduced in iOS 18.1: a notification badge that shows the exact count of grouped notifications. It’s subtle yet super useful, especially if you’re like me and often misclick when trying to expand a notification stack because the brightness makes it hard to see the stack…

While trying to find a similar solution for my jailbroken device, I tested Velvet but ran into some UI issues. I kept seeing posts on X about this feature and thought, “Why can’t we have this elegant notification badge too?” so, I created my own tweak that does exactly that—and even adds a bit more customization for us.

So NotificationsGroupCount - Here’s what my tweak can do:

  • Adds a badge to notification stacks, showing the count of notifications within the group.
  • Lets you control the badge’s shadow effect for better visibility.
  • Offers three different coloring schemes:
    1. Custom colors: Choose your own background and text color.
    2. Wallpaper-based color: Automatically matches the average color of your lock screen wallpaper.
    3. Icon-based color (default): Adapts to the color of the app icon beneath the badge for a clean look.

Compatibility

Supports iOS 15-16, works with both rootful and rootless setups, and includes RTL and LTR language support.

Pricing & Availability

This tweak is available for $1.50. Despite the time and effort I’ve put into refining the visuals (icon, images, etc.), I’ve decided to release it as an open-source project. This way, you have the choice to either support my work or compile it yourself and install the .deb package.

Get it from my repo:
