No message indicator on incoming text message

[Android Central Question]

Just this week the number indicator on my HTC 10 no longer lists the number of text messages. The sound tells me there is a message, but no indicator. This is true on incoming emails as well.

The counter on the icons is a cooperation between your launcher app for the home-screen and the individual apps.
Did anything major change on your phone in the last week, like an Android update or an app update?

Which SMS app are you using?
