Question

Hi i want to make an feed reading application that it should look like this

Here i want to make an application that reads data from different websites. The data should be seperate in category wise and should the number of updates should come in badges with respect to different category.
But i got a problem that there is no availability of creating badges inside a view like the picture in the above, there is only possibility to create on application icon, Please help me in which way i can achieve the target like in the picture. What should i use to create icons like NEWS, ADVISORS etc like in picture and how can we use badges in those icons inside a view.
Thank you if anyone help me in advance

Answer 1

First i would like to share something related to RSS Feeds. These are in XML Format. If you see the XML of feeds you will easily get the category of the feed.

For badges i would like to suggest create icons with empty badges (i.e, without numbers) and add labels fit into the red badge area. update labels from your code with number of updates.

Thanks
