[Bug]: When the app is closed, notifications that were received while it was open do not open the app

[AlexFlorenco]

What happened?

My problem only happens when I receive a notification with the app running (in the foreground or background). When you kill the app and click on the notification, nothing happens. The notification just disappears.

I noticed that the same problem happens with the OneSignal example project here on github. Is this a known limitation?

In all other situations, notifications work perfectly, in the foreground, background and dead.

Steps to reproduce?

class NotificationService {
  NotificationService._();
  static final NotificationService instance = NotificationService._();

  bool initialized = false;
  bool appInBackground = false;
  bool appOpenByNotification = false;

  Future<void> initialize() async {
    OneSignal.Debug.setLogLevel(OSLogLevel.verbose);
    OneSignal.initialize("MY_APP_ID");
    OneSignal.LiveActivities.setupDefault();
    OneSignal.Notifications.clearAll();

    OneSignal.Notifications.addClickListener((event) {
      if (appInBackground) {
        appOpenByNotification = true;
        AdsService.loadAndShowNotificationAd(callback: () {
          handleNotificationReceived(event);
          appOpenByNotification = false;
        });
      } else if (initialized) {
        AdsService.loadAndShowNotificationAd(callback: () {
          handleNotificationReceived(event);
        });
      } else {
        appOpenByNotification = true;
        Timer.periodic(const Duration(milliseconds: 500), (timer) {
          if (initialized) {
            timer.cancel();
            handleNotificationReceived(event);
          }
        });
      }
    });

    OneSignal.Notifications.addForegroundWillDisplayListener((event) {
      event.preventDefault();
      event.notification.display();
    });
  }
}

What did you expect to happen?

I expected the closed app to start when clicking on the notification that was received when the app was running

Comigo acontece a mesma coisa... Fico no aguardo de alguma atualização!

The same thing is happening to me as well. I noticed this issue about two days ago. I have a Flutter app integrated with OneSignal for long time, and I have never observed this behavior before.

However, in my case, the notification doesn't disappear. Instead, it moves to the end of the notification list. When I click it a second time, it works.

It's true, I noticed that on some devices this also happens too
