I noticed the same thing. My refresh is set on and Mail is not in the list.
I think that I have gone as far as I can. The badge number is
automatically announced with a higher number, but only sometimes.
You have helped me understand what is going on and there may be other
factors affecting the inconsistency.
Thanks again,

Hi,
Go to Settings, scroll down a bit and you’ll find it. Double tap it.
You can decide whether background app should be off altogether or
specify which apps can refresh in the background.
Oddly enough, I didn’t see Mail in the list of apps, and I
double-checked.

I turned on the push and now occasionally hear a higher badge number
announced.
This is with the Home screen in the foreground and Mail highlighted.
Now where is the background app refresh?

There are two places in settings to check.
settings, notifications, and scroll down to mail and make sure
badges is on.
Also, settings, mail, near the top should be another spot that needs
to have badges on.
If those are on, and still no changes, maybe calling Apple.

Hello,
When on the Home screen, I assume that the badge is the number
of unread Emails that are shown when "Mail" is highlighted. This
number does not change unless I open the Mail app.
For example:
On the Home screen, I highlight “mail” and hear:
Mail 0 unread Email
I leave the Iphone (on the Home screen) for an hour and then
check (by flicking back and forth) to hear that the number of
unread Emails has not changed. I know new mail was received in
that hour.
There are 2 ways to confirm this.
Double tap Mail to open it and Immediately close the mail app to
return to the Home screen. Flick back & forth to highlight Mail.
The number of unread Emails has gon up.
Or, when the mail app is open, I highlight my_ISP account and
hear that there is a higher number of unread Emails than was
reported on the Home screen.
I even tried this test with the Mail app active but in the
background.
If I leave the Iphone untouched (with the Mail app in the
foreground) for another hour, the account badge still gives the
same number of unread Emails.
Double tapping will open the account, and there is a list of
even more unread Emails.
Sometimes when opening the Mail app I hear:
Updated just now
Is the update done only when the Mail app is opened?
Why doesn’t the Home screen Mail badge number change
automatically to reflect new mail as they come in?
Is there a setting to force the Mail app badge to automatically
update?
