Actually i found the right answer. I was opening base app from another viewController using the extensionContext property of MSMessagesAppViewController, but that viewController was presenting on top of the rootVC. It happens that rootVC opens urls very well, but any other doesn't. So i simply request my rootVC to open url using extensionContext.

You can use this function.

UIApplication.shared.open(url, options: [:], completionHandler: nil)

But now you will get compiler error. To fix the compiler error, do this. Set Require Only App-Extension-Safe API to NO in your extension's build settings.
