When I have new messages (mails, signal-messages, etc) I see a small blue “bubble” at the top right corner of the app-icon.
Is there a way to change the layout of the notification-icons?
I want a red bubble with a white number of unread messages.
It might be possible using a different launcher…
EDIT: …well, as you don’t want another launcher this is probably not a solution for you…

Hello @Volker,
I thought the unread counters are standard in Android?
At least I had them on my Samsung…
Standard Android is what you have now.
Samsung does not do standard Android, they do customer retention by heavy customisation

I know how sh… 
Samsung is, I still have my old Note 8.
So there is no way to change the colour of the notification icons?
I guess you won’t be using SquareHome 2 (I don’t anymore either), but just as a proof of concept I’m able to find quickly …
It’s possible with a different launcher.

I was using the Microsoft Launcher on my old Samsung and there it worked:
(gReader is a widget, so the layout is different)
In Android I only have the option to turn the notification icons on and off, but I can’t change the colour of the icon and also not turn on numbers.
So I will use the Microsoft Launcher again, because this is the best option.
Thank you all for your feedback!
