On Android that concept really is not there, as far as I know;
Correct. GCM does have allowances for grouping push messages but that
isn't quite the same thing as Badges.
From what I understand, badges are a hack in iOS to get around the lack
of a proper Notification System before version 5. In Android to get
similar behavior the user would have to install a widget on their
launcher which looked like the icon for the app but updated with the
number of notifications. It is my advised opinion that the
notification shade should be used instead.
Natvie iOS this is what you get for free, when badge reaches the app.
In Cordova-iOS this should be the same!

I noticed some of the other push server providers offer the
ability to keep
track of the badge and increment it as a new notification comes
in. Maybe
the client could set the badge to "increment" or "+1", etc. The
Aerogear
Unified Push Server would then increment the badge and send the
notification.
Any thoughts ?
