How to increase badge number when application is in background

Question

I am using this code. Every thing is working fine when push notification comes but badge number does not increase when application is in background. How to solve this problem? <

Answer 1

When you send a Push Notification you need add badge value. So you need handle badge for each user device. In php is something like that:

$body['aps'] = array(
'alert' => $message,
'sound' => 'default',
'badge'=> 10
);

where 10 thats just the number displayed in the icon.
