When I click on the notification on my android app, entire app reloads

[PulasthiAbey]

I have a React Native app with RN version "react-native": "0.72.7", and use react-native-notification with version ^5.1.0 for my notification service for both Android and iOS applications.

The notification service works fine in iOS without any issues. The notification service for the Android app has some problems.

I am dealing with a reloading issue for Android versions 11 and above. Following is the scenario for the bug.

Steps

• Open the Android app and keep it in the background

• Receive notification for the app and click on the notification from the notification center

• The app will open but the entire application gets reloaded

Accepted Criteria

• The app should not reload when clicking on the push notifications

Can anybody give me some sense into why this is happening?

What do you have in your Manifest for hte Launch mode of the Activity? If it's singleTask (default, IIRC), you maybe able to try SingleTop

@alex-crookes I tried the SingleTop

Android resource linking failed error: 'SingleTop' is incompatible with attribute launchMode (attr) enum [singleInstance=3, singleInstancePerTask=4, singleTask=2, singleTop=1, standard=0]

I am getting this when I try SingleTop. I am using singleTask at the moment

Found a solution for this in a patch for react-native-notification.
