Expo OTA Updates not working on first launch

I am working with Expo's OTA Updates and for some reason my app doesn't apply the update until the second time opening the app.

For example, I make some changes and run expo publish, I go ahead and open the app and there are no changes. I then close the app, and reopen and the changes are realized.

I'm looking to both download and apply changes right from the initial opening of the app.

app.json

"updates": {
   "fallbackToCacheTimeout": 0
},

I was able to fix this by changing fallbackToCacheTimeout to any n > 0.

This allows the app to download and apply any updates within n time before reverting back to previous cached version of the app.
