Describe the bug

Get a notification for a new message. Convo does not yet have the new message in it. New message appears when you back out to convo list view.

The flow goes like this:

• Get Push Notification
• Click it
• Sent to Conversation view
• No new message
• Went back to threads view
• Saw new message in Conversation
• Go back into Conversation view and it was there

To reproduce

• Use fast mode notifications
• Have Background Refresh turned off in the system settings

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

• Device: iPhone 11 pro max
• OS: iOS 15.4.1
• Version of Session or latest commit hash: v1.12.9

Additional context

• It's possible that having background refresh turned off is causing some strange behavior.

• Ideally, the app should inject the message into the conversation based on the push

• Other messaging apps don't have this issue even when Background Refresh is disabled on them as well.

tap notification and you see this first screen with no new message.

back out and re-enter conversation and the new message is finally there

Hi @trosel, this issue should be fixed a couple of releases ago. I'll close this issue for now. If you still see this happens, we'll reopen this issue and dig into it deeper. Thanks!
