I would like a widget on my homescreen that shows the unread count in a particular label.
The closest I have found is per label notifications.
Does any such widget exist?
Could I combine Tasker with the per label notifications to create such a widget?

Same question but for K-9..
Come on people, surely this is really easy to make. If I knew how I'd do it myself.
I've seen apps that simply launch gmail with a specific search parameter. And I've seen widgets that count the unread mail in the inbox.
All you need to do is count the mail within a label related search parameter. Is this not possible?
Could someone who's received Google app inventer give this a go?

I'm using LauncherPro, and have a gmail shortcut on the dock. It notifies me whenever I get a new mail in my inbox, but not for mails that are delivered under other labels. AFAIK, it's a limitation in the gmail app itself. Is there any other app that can do this? It needs to be an app, as widgets can't be placed on the dock. Thanks!

Would like the count unread app be able to pick your own icon, unlike the sms and gmail apps.
Still looking for a app that does this, anybody had any luck?
Waiting to see
HTC Sense has one built-in, but other than that, the only one I've ever found is the '1x1 Ultimate Unread Widget' and it costs $1 and requires root.
I've been searching for a far more customizable solution to no avail...

Cheers for the reply, but reading the reviews for 1x1 Ultimate Unread Widget i think i will give it a miss, but thats the basic grouds of what i am looking for, just have to wait and see if someone else finds one
SMS Unread Count also includes 1x1 widgets for email and is free. I used to use it for Gmail. On LPP so unread is now in the dock.

Yeah i know you can do it for gmail, but i'm looking to link another e-mail account sms unread count cant do this, and i would like to add my own icon, you can only pick from a few when you use this app.
Ok I have the G2x and I'm coming from the G2. Neither has the ability to display on the gmail mail icon how many unread emails you have.
I downloaded gmail unread count but it only allows 1 account to be accounted for. I've used the thunderbolt and that one keeps track of all your email accounts on one icon, anyone know of an app that can do the same thing?

Launcher pro has that feature built in

Thanks, ill give it a shot. Had launcherpro on my g2, but ended up going back to stock due to random crashes. I still have no idea why this isnt a default ability, im sure im not the only person with several gmail accounts and want to know I have unread email on my home screen.

It can be used for Messaging, Missed Calls, as well as Gmail
It is a "widget icon" which replaced the stock icon
Works great
The sms unread count as well as the gmail unread count widgets only work with 1 account. What I want is a single widget to handle multiple accounts at 1 time. So if I have an unread email in 2 email accounts the widget would display a 2 on the icon.
I dont want a widget for each email account

Not sure if this is an App limitation, or I missed the option, but is it possible to make the gmail widget select a specific label to display, or even an all mail option?
I guess I'm too organised in having almost all my mail feed into labels except the unexpected/boring ones, and now I don't get to have them display in widgets.
Ideally I'd like to have 2 or 3 full height widgets showing my most used label's new mail for quick access.
If the stock app can't do this, does anyone know of a replacement app or widget that can?
I spent a lot of time trying to find such a widget on my Desire phone and finally found the GMail Label Notifier widget.
It works brilliantly on my Desire; each widget can be associated with any label in any GMail account and it will take you to that label & account when you click on it. Each widget also shows the unread count as well as giving the ability to define a different vibrate & ringtone per label.
Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work on Honeycomb but I suspect that it may work if you're rooted because of something I have read elsewhere. I'm not yet rooted but if you are, you could try. I'd really like to know.
The developer states that you can try it on Honeycomb and if it doesn't work to contact him and he'll refund. I contacted him less than 24 hours ago but he has not yet replied.
If we can get it working on Honeycomb it is really a great widget. As far as I know its he only one that has the 'per label' feature.
Thanks for the reply.
I have looked into GMail Label Notifier, but I was hoping for proper widgets that showed the actual mail's subject and first few lines of text. But beggers can't be choosers.
Hi All,
My very first post on XDA forums, i have used these forums for great help in the past.
I'm a little stumped at the moment, i am using Dodol Launcher on my Nexus 5 with Lollipop OS, i'm about 90% happy with the whole launcher, just need to know if there's any good notification badge applications out there for Ebay? so when i get notifications in Ebay, the badge app icon with notification count comes up on the homescreen icon? An app which lets me select which apps show homescreen unread badge counts on the icon would be perfect!
Also, is there a good email app which supports multiple email accounts (Gmail, Yahoo etc) all in one, and will combine the unread messages as a badge app count on the homescreen icon?
Any suggestions would help, please don't mention another launcher as i'm quite happy with Dodol at thei stage.
Thanks!
The email app you need is my mail. I use it and it is superb. Takes all accounts plus you get an email account from them which just uses your phone no as a pass word so can only be used on your phone. Makes for really good names. As you put say your name then its just @MY.com. I've Gmail Hotmail etc on it and it takes nova notification badges
