Twitter notifications

Various people have various apps that stop their notifications for some reason at times.

Have you tried going into the Settings app and completely disabling notifications for Twitter and then enabling them again to see if that might "reset" it essentially? Alternatively maybe even disable them, sign out and uninstall the app, reinstall it again, sign in, and enable notifications again if needed.

 

Alright, I'll way in on what I found with this.
Sometime ago the Badge setting in notifications disappeared on my 6 Plus 8.0.2 as well.
I tried rolling back to the previous Twitter version, uninstalling, re-installing the latest, etc but nothing brought it back.
The badge would stay on the app for any notification and no setting to remove it.

I was fed up, so I restored as new and installed Twitter.
The option was back!
Great, but now I don't have any of my settings/apps/messages/etc.
I restored my backup and the issue came back...
I toggled off notifications for Twitter in Settings>Notifications>Twitter and then backed out of the Settings app.
Next, I uninstalled the Twitter app.
I then powered the phone off and back on.
I once again reinstalled the Twitter app and the option was back!!!
I set it the way I like (Notifications on, Sounds off, Badge off, Banner style) and the settings appear to be sticking.

I have now made a new backup with it in the working state, so hopefully it will work permanently.

Hope this helps someone else as well.
