getInitialNotification of React Native Firebase returns notification object only for first push notification

Question

I have a weird problem with @react-native-firebase/messaging. I recently updated to v6 and everything works well on iOS and on Android everything works well except for one thing.

When getting multiple push notifications the following is the case:

1. Clicking on one notification opens the app and getInitialNotification() gives me the clicked notification, so I can handle it
2. When closing the app completely and then clicking on one of the other notifications the app opens again, but getInitialNotification() returns null

It seems like opening the app with one notification eats the data of all the other notifications as well. I guess I'm doing something wrong, but I have no clue where I can search for the issue.

Some information about the setup

• I removed react-native-splash-screen (didn't change anything)
• I am on the most recent versions of @react-native-firebase/app and /messaging ("@react-native-firebase/app": "8.2.0", "@react-native-firebase/messaging": "7.4.2")
• React Native is on version 0.62.2
• The app is calling getInitialNotification() in a useEffect, so after the first render of the navigation tree

Answer 1

messaging().onNotificationOpenedApp(remoteMessage => {
      console.log(
        'Notification caused app to open from background state:',
        remoteMessage.notification,
      );
      navigation.navigate(remoteMessage.data.type);
    });
