[iOS] `onNotification` never called if the app was in "killed" status and received a remote notification.

Bug

This issue is only on iOS.

On iOS, v5.1.1 called onNotification() when a remote notification arrived even if the app was in “killed” state. (e.g. the user killed the app on purpose.) However, from v6.0.0, I found that onNotification() is not called int the same situation and it can be reproduced with the example app of this repo. See the Steps To Reproduce section for details.

2. You will see the notification bar and tap it.
3. The example app will be launched, but the

Hi @gki Please refer to the iOS library for this: https://github.com/react-native-community/push-notification-ios Regards

@Dallas62 Thanks for your quick response.

I checked your links and reviewed the example app files of zo0r/react-native-push-notification/, but I cannot find any missing or wrong settings.

Here are what I checked. Everything seems to be already set up correctly.

• In package.json, have a dependency to react-native-community/push-notification-ios -> OK

• Correctly setup iOS project by following Readme of react-native-community/push-notification-ios -> OK

• Update AppDelegate -> OK.

• Checked changelog of zo0r/react-native-push-notification. -> OK (In my understanding, it should be OK for iOS if there is a dependency to react-native-community/push-notification-ios)

Do you have any thought for other suspicious setting or code? Please let me know if there are anything I can help to check.

Thanks,
