Turned on my spare mobile phone (Motorola G75) which had recently been updated to Android 16. Saw lots of numbered badges on various apps that made no sense pop up unexpectedly. Opening the apps concerned wasn’t helpful, there were no logical alerts within these apps that would indicate any reason for these badges. Bastard thing wouldn’t go away until I reset app icon badges i the Notifications part of Settings to “dot” instead of “Numbered.” That fixed the issue. I normally use an iPhone 17e, the numbers make sense on that platform. What annoyed me the most was that the setting had been chasnged in the Android 16 update.
