          // Does not get here
        });

      this.onResumeSubscription = this.platform.resume.subscribe(() => {

Platform is from @ionic/angular, it listen for Cordova pause and resume events, which were not implemented on Capacitor.

I’ve added them now for better compatibility

FYI:

"Ionic Native is supported in Capacitor. Currently, Ionic Native contains only Cordova plugins, so whenever you find an Ionic Native wrapper you’d like to use, install it and then install the corresponding Cordova plugin by running

npm install your-cordova-plugin npx cap update"
