## Full description

Apps show unread counts on their Dock icons, which stops helping once the Dock is hidden. This tool moves those counts into icons across the top of the screen, with each app's number on its own icon. Icons fade when there is nothing new, and a count that rises pulses, glows, or shimmers, optionally until you read it. Right-clicking an icon shows who wrote and what they said, and related apps can be grouped under one icon that shows their combined total.
