What you want is called a "badge".

[UIApplication sharedApplication].applicationIconBadgeNumber = 2;

EDIT: removed SetApplicationBadge

What you are looking for is the applicationIconBadgeNumber property which is a property of UIApplication.

To set the badge, from anywhere in your app, use:

UIApplication *application = [UIApplication sharedApplication];
application.applicationIconBadgeNumber = 1; // set to any integer

To remove the badge, set the property to 0.
