Fetch messages in background when Push Notification is received
status-im
Batchfile
[comment]: # (Please replace ... with your information. Remove )
### User Story
- As a user, I expect to see the unread messages in the when I click the push notification. Currently, I have to wait for sync to kick in and retrieve the messages from the network.
- As a Status contributor, I want to have a better sense of what the Sent/Received ratio is. If the user doesn't open the app for 24h after receiving a message, that message will never be counted as received, which is fake news!
### Description
[comment]: # (Feature or Bug? i.e Type: Bug)
*Type*: Features
[comment]: # (Describe the feature you would like, or briefly summarise the bug and what you did, what you expected to happen, and what actually happens. Sections below)
*Summary*:
The application could run in the background upon reception of a notification to fetch recent messages, decrypt them and consequently send the signal to Mixpanel.
#### Expected behavior
[comment]: # (Describe what you expected to happen.)
1. User receives message and PN;
1. User loses internet connectivity;
1. After a minute, user clicks on PN;
1. App opens and message is ready to be read.
#### Actual behavior
[comment]: # (Describe what actually happened.)
1. User receives message and PN;
1. User loses internet connectivity;
1. After a minute, user clicks on PN;
1. App opens and message doesn't appear until foreground sync has completed.
### Solution
[comment]: # (Please summarise the solution and provide a task list on what needs to be fixed.)
*Summary*:
It could be done using `background app refresh` feature on iOS which allows an app to wake up for 30 sec in the background upon reception of a notification
> When a background update notification is delivered to the user's device, iOS wakes up your app in the background and gives it up to 30 seconds to run. In iOS, the system delivers background update notifications by calling the application:didReceiveRemoteNotification:fetchCompletionHandler: method of your app delegate. Use that method to initiate any download operations needed to fetch new data. Processing remote notifications in the background requires that you add the appropriate background modes to your app.
Similar feature should exist on Android.
1. The notification sent by the client should be a [data-only notification](https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging/concept-options#data_messages), otherwise, it will only call app-specific code when it is tapped by the receiver or the app is in the foreground.
1. Upon getting called `onMessageReceived()` (Android)/`didReceiveRemoteNotification()` (iOS), the app should trigger a network sync to retrieve messages, in a platform-specific way that allows for long-running tasks, and create a [local notification](https://github.com/evollu/react-native-fcm#build-custom-push-notification-for-android).
