email notification issues

OK, I hope I can explain this properly. Samsung Galaxy Alpha phone. I set up two business emails with no problem. When I receive an email, it makes a sound, vibrates, but also places a red circle with a # in it to show how many new unread emails I have.

My text message icon also shows this circle and I set-up "whatsapp" as well it also shows the circle.

However, I have set-up a gmail account and when an email comes in it will make a sound and vibrate, but no visual notification, so if i am away from phone, or it is turned off I wont automatically know that a message is there. I also have this issue with yahoo messenger, but not as important as i dont use that app very often

Hope this made sense. Thanks
