Badges

Dot badges on app icons (a quiet “needs attention” signal).

Badges (notification dots)

Badges are small dots on taskbar icons. They’re designed to be a quiet “something happened” signal - not a second notification center.

What a badge means

In Sulguni Taskbar, a badge typically means the app has recent/unread notifications in the Taskbar Notifications feed.

This setting also controls dot badges on:

  • the Notifications button (bell)
  • the AI button (if you use it)

Turn badges on/off

Open Sulguni Taskbar Settings → Behavior → Show badges on apps.

Notes

  • Badges are dots (not unread counts). For details, open Notifications.
  • If Notifications are empty/disabled, app badges may not appear.
  • Clearing notifications usually clears the dot.

If you prefer a cleaner bar

Turn badges off. Taskbar stays functional - it just removes extra visual noise.
