I am also having this same issue. Noting I do will make it go away. You need to address this bug asap. I don’t want work arounds. I want a solution. I pay for this app so give me my money’s worth.

    Having the same problem on my iPhone(iOS 16.3.1, app version 320.3) and my iPad(16.3.1/  320.3).  On the iPad, the stuck notification count is only inside the app.  Cleared cache, won’t go away(not deleting and re-adding since I am a free user).  But on the iPhone, the notification is on the phone’s Home Screen- really, really annoying and a distraction from *real* notifications.

      I signed out and resigned in. Problem disappeared. But developers have to solve this issue.

        Thanks Phcalc , that did it for me on both devices.  I agree that it should be fixed though.
