Badge

25 Sep 2026

A bell with a count that becomes every surface a notification needs — the toast, a stack you can throw away, the unread pill, the inbox, the quiet hours — and never cuts from one to the next.

One shape

The bell, the toast, the pill, the inbox and both menus are one element changing size, radius and fill. The content in each is laid out at its final size, so the shape grows around text that never reflows.

Thrown, not dismissed

While you hold a toast it is exactly where your pointer is. Let go and a spring starts from there with your speed; the blur is that speed.

Quiet, not gone

Snoozed notifications still arrive and still count, on the same badge, grey, without the ring.
