I think the stock launcher is limited to Google Messenger and the Dialer. You may need to switch launcher for other apps.

Each manufacturer builds the unread count (badge....I believe it's called) into their launcher on their phones. Samsung uses a different launcher than Moto, so their launcher has different unread counts on different app icons. There are many quality launchers available on the Play Store that you can try, and maybe some of them offer unread count functionality for any app icon. On my Moto Z Force and the stock Moto launcher, the unread count only displays on the Phone (dialer) icon, the messages icon and the Mail app icon.

One of the most popular launchers is Nova. With the free version you can change the icons​ size and much more, but for the numeric unread badges you will need the Prime (paid) version plus the free Tesla Unread plugin.

Highly recommend Nova as the above poster suggested!! It will do exactly what you're looking for.
