This idea has appeared several times, and I think it's a great one. As things now stand, I really don't use the badge, but if I could see it tailored to a specific list, that would be a great improvement.

I agree. It would be great to specify the list from which the App Badge count is derived.

Personally I'd choose the Inbox list, so I can see how may new tasks I have which need categorising.

This would help a lot and greatly add to the 'mind like water' approach of GTD.

I have a smart list for 'today' which doesn't include tasks I'm waiting on or items requiring action from others. Currently the badge just displays the default today item quantity so usually displays more items than I can actually action.

This feature would multiple RTM's usage on the iPhone, one could easily switch between private and business todos or track follow-ups without being bother by the app badge.

I would love to see this, just like how the iPhone does it...

Gotta have this

Yes yes yes!
I was just about to write a, what I thought, new idea regarding this. Just to find out that others already have thought about it :)

I would love to be able to see number of tasks on my "now-list" as app badge.
On my Now-list I have tasks that are due within one minut of now. In that way I set a time for private things needed to do after work hours and I don't see them on my now-list while at work.
Would be SO helpfull to see number of now-tasks with just a quick glance on the phone...

According to me this feature is a must have!!

Love to have this. In my case i have a list that counts tasks due today and nearby.

I could have sworn I submitted this enhancement request at least a year ago. Wondering if the development hours would really be that much to make this happen...? Agree totally that users should be able to choose a smart list on which to base the app badge.

This is a very important feature. Especially because the "Tasks Due Today" include tasks scheduled for later in the day which you obviously don't want to see in the app badge until the time occurs. Any feedback from RTM on this?

I can honestly say there is literally only one problem in my entire life, and this is it.

Yes! TODAY is useless for me, too! I use a Smart List to weed out task that aren't real tasks such as the stuff in my freezer or pantry that is past its expiry date (tsk tsk).

I've turned off the app badge because it is useless.

I have also turned off badges because of this. This would be a great feature.
