Notification onClick reloads app

[varepato]

Expected Behaviour

When click on notification should go to certain state (or view).

Actual Behaviour

When clicked on notification shows a gray screen and reloads app. I can see the notification but when I click on it reloads the app or tries to load the app twice (or open the app again).

Steps to Reproduce

add $state.go('someState'); to the notification.onClick function

Sample Code that illustrates the problem

if (“Notification” in window) {
  Notification.requestPermission(function (permission) {
    // If the user accepts, let’s create a notification
    if (permission === ‘granted’) {
      var notification = new Notification(“My title”, {
           tag: ‘message1’, 
           body: “My body” 
      }); 
      notification.onshow  = function() { console.log(‘show’); };
      notification.onclose = function() { console.log(‘close’); };
      notification.onclick = function() { $state.go('someState'); };
    }
  });
}

You can try editing your config.xml and add <preference name="AndroidLaunchMode" value="singleInstance" /> By setting it to singleInstance, the app won't create another instance of it.

@varepato you may want to add a slight delay in your onclick handler. Other than that do you have some logs? adb logcat

Ah. I didn't read it thoroughly and did reply after seeing the expected behavior and actual behavior. The one I mentioned above should fix it. I also have the same problem wherein when the notification is tapped/clicked, the Android OS creates another instance of the app.
