To replace an existing notification with a new one you should simply post a notification with the same id, this behavior is mentioned in the documentation of NotificationManager's notify() method. If you want to just remove a notification, call cancel() providing the id you used to start it.

Regarding counting the number of notifications your app has sent, I think the best solution would be to just store a counter and increment it once a notification has been sent.
