Esteem v2.0.9; Unable to get past startup screen when I try to check out a "mention" notification.
Project Information
- Repository: https://github.com/esteemapp/esteem-mobile
- Project Name: Esteem mobile
- Publisher (if applicable): @good-karma
Describe the bug
When I get push notifications for "mentions" (ie; when I'm mentioned in a post or comment), clicking on the notification causes the app to get stuck at boot screen or startup screen.
For this bug to be reproducible, it means the app should not be open or running in the background
To Reproduce
To reproduce this error, you have to ensure that the app is not running. Then you can ask someone to mention you in a comment or anywhere that would cause the app to notify you that you were mentioned in a post. In my case, it came naturally. When all that is set and you receive a notification about a mention;
- Click on it
- The app launches and you are asked to input your pin code
- Try to type in your pin code
- See error ( The app reverses back to the startup screen and gets stuck there until the app is restarted.).
Expected behavior
I expected that when I clicked on the notification about a "mention", I would be directed to the post or comment where I was mentioned.

Hi @harry-heightz, thanks for making this contribution.
I was able to reproduce the behavior you described. Clicking on a mention notification should redirect the user to the post from which the user was mentioned. The hanging is totally unexpected.
The steps were easy to follow and reproduce. It was a simple enough error, no complications here. I like how you explained the actual and expected behaviors, it made for an easy read.
