I like that WhatsApp clears the notification count badge when you open the app

I…… HATE THIS with all my heart!

What’s the point of multiple notifications if they ALL clear when I open my app?
The badge is there to remind you you still have to go thru them 😅

The phone is a communication device, its sole purpose IMO is to remind you of texts you haven’t replied to yet.

It’s legit to have unresponded texts anxiety in this time and age, but just remove the notif badge then

From a UI/UX pov what whatsapp does is counter intuitive, and it gives me MORE anxiety because if i know that if i reply to John now I might forget to reply to other people later…

texting is already such a chore. i prefer not being reminded about texts i haven't responded to but am aware of every time i open my phone to do something else
