How to disable a mini icon from shortcut

[Android Central Question]

Is it possible to disable that mini icon that appears next to app that the shortcut is from?

In Android there's no "shortcut" icon, that's only in Windows.

In Android, you may be seeing a badge, a count of unread messages for that app.
