That means that under the old system, if you had 3 overdue actions and 10 due soon, and then completed your overdue ones, your screaming red badge would change from 3 to 2 to 1, to 10, with no indication as to why. That's surely quite scary, and not what you want?
I think what we have now is the best compromise for the time being. The better solution, which I hope OG will implement soon, would be an option for the user to decide whether he wanted the (always red) badge to show due soon, overdue, flagged, a combination of those, or none.

Ah, i did not know the colour is fixed.
Then the icon should show no badge when there are no overdue items. I do not see a sensible way to show the due soon item count then.
Your proposal for a configurable badge setting is a good idea.
Thanks for the reply
