Show "unread" count on badge in Teams tab

[TombaDiBomba]

Hi

We are showing a intranet webpage in Teams through a custom Tab. 

On the linked webpage we use the microsoftTeams Javascript SDK.

The page returns a list and a number of intranet tasks (some kind of todo). I would like to display the number of tasks todo as a badge on the icon of the app, just like the unread count in a Team channel, so the user doens't have to actively check the page, but is informed of new things to do through the badge.

I can't find a method on how to make this possible. Anyone can help me out? Search engines don't help me out either. Is it even possible for a custom app/tab?

@TombaDiBomba It's not possible, there is no badge area against a tab.

The recommended design for Teams apps is to send messages to the activity feed, then a user can review the updates from your app alongside other activity.

@Steven Collier Thanks for responding. Too bad, hopefully somewhere in the future.
