Plugin.Maui.TabbarBadge

A library to add Tabbar Badge to Shell Tabbar Items for Android and iOS using .NET MAUI.

Setup

Add the Plugin.Maui.TabbarBadge Nuget Package to your project.

Initialize the Library in your MauiProgram.cs:

builder
    .UseMauiApp<App>()
    .UseTabbarBadge() // <- Add This Line
    .ConfigureFonts(fonts =>
    {
        fonts.AddFont("OpenSans-Regular.ttf", "OpenSansRegular");
        fonts.AddFont("OpenSans-Semibold.ttf", "OpenSansSemibold");
    })

Next you need to assign the Badge to one of your Tabs, the Tab should be setup in your AppShell.xaml like this:

<Tab Title="Cart"
     Icon="tab_cart.png"
     x:Name="CartTab">
    <ShellContent ContentTemplate="{DataTemplate cart:CartPage}" />
</Tab>

In the AppShell.xaml.cs Constructor assign the Tab:

public AppShell()
{
    InitializeComponent();
    
    this.AssignBadge(CartTab); // <- Add this line
}

From now on if you want to change the badge number you can call:

BadgeCounterService.SetCount(1);
