More details on the issue:

The general rule that we have on iOS: for any dm message, private group mention or reply since we don't have any information about them besides that they belong to Messenger, the user lands on the chat list once they clicked on a push notification on their device and then that's the user's job to figure out what new they have in Messenger.

The issue:
Let's say you chat to Bob over dms and you leave your Status on the chat screen with Bob

1. then Alice sends you a dm, you get a generic push notification saying "You've got a message in Messenger", tap on it, and you will land on the chat with Bob since it is the last screen where you left the app. Expected: you land on the chat list so you can figure out that this push notification is actually because Alice sent you a new dm, then you go and check this dm from Alice. And later, you leave the app on the chat screen with Alice.

2. then Volo sends you a dm, you get a push notification saying "You've got a message in Messenger", tap on it, and you will land on the chat with Alice since that's the last screen where you left the app. Expected: you land on the chat list so you can figure out that this push notification is actually because Volo sent you a new dm

This issue only happens if you leave your app on the chat screen (it looks the app doesn't know how to go from the chat view to the chat list view when opening a push notification). If you leave your app on any other screen, let's say Wallet, Home, Settings, then on opening push notifications that belong to Messenger, you will land on the chat list as expected.
