Hi,

In the v1, there was an _Overdue Item Count for Badge_ option. Can you bring it back to v2 ?

It was like the current _Task Count Icon Badge_ but only counting the overdue item.

Thank you,

Clem

PS: If you can bring back the Whale theme, I won’t mind.

I am thinking about this and agree it should be a thing again, it mostly bugs me that it feels very muddy and a bit confusing if you have both of these on. And I think we should add a more descriptive caption or something, very difficult to cleanly communicate these options with just a single line of text!

Maybe you should use three lines:  
_Task Count Icon Badge_  
_Count All Tasks_  
_Count Overdue Tasks Only_  
The second and third lines appear only when icon badge is on and you can select only one of them.

Also seriously considering if badging should be default behavior for reminders. I’m kind of imagining only if it’s for later in the day, and remaining badged until it fires? (With a complication to turn this off… perhaps.) But yeah something I need to sleep on / digest some more.

Hi,  
did you digest it ? any update on this feature ? I would really prefer if the badge count would be overdue reminders.
