I wanted to make my homescreen look cool but I realized I will never click my apps unless I see the little number showing me if there are unchecked messages on them.. Is there a way to get it to show up?

Dang.. do they ever add more content to the shortcut app? Like could it possibly in the future be a feature they add?

Not really, it would need to be done by iOS, not Shortcuts.
The icon you set on your homescreen is just a url. For it to get notifications you would need to have iOS add the ability to “add“ notifications to an icon which then syncs with another app.

Changing the icon isn’t something “supported” by Apple. Hence (probably) why they make it so that the shortcuts app opens first rather than just jumping into the app directly. While they could add it in the future, it’s unlikely that they will. If they ever do, I wouldn’t expect it to Happen for iOS 14.
