Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by tracing how the plugin handles notification opens and how pending notifications are represented when the app is opened manually; done means an optional mechanism can read those pending notifications and remove them from the system UI.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

android ios
Problem description

When notifications get received while the app has been in the background or killed and it gets opened not through tapping on one of those notifications (e.g. clicking on the app icon or selecting it in the multitasking screen), there is currently no way to consume these notifications. They can only be consumed when the app gets opened through tapping on a notification.

Expected behavior

A mechanism should be provided which enables optionally reading the data of those pending notifications and removing them from the system UI when the app gets opened.
