[Bug]: event.preventDefault() doesn't work on iOS

[kamil-floqsta]

What happened?

I would like to not display notification if some conditions are met.

Regarding to the [User Model] Rename Events & API Changes pull request:

OneSignal.Notifications.addEventListener('foregroundWillDisplay', (event) => {
      event.preventDefault();
      // async work
      event.getNotifications.display();
};

In the previous versions this could to achived by calling notificationReceivedEvent.complete(undefined)

Steps to reproduce?

1. Install react-native-onesignal 5.0.2
2. Build and run iOS
3. Subscribe user to the push notifications with OneSignal SDK
4. Add foregroundWillDisplay event listener and comment `event.getNotifications.display()`
5. Send test notification
6. The notification is displayed but should be hidden

@kamil-floqsta In order to not display the notification you just call event.preventDefault(); If you would then like to display the notification after delaying the default display you call event.getNotifications.display(); If you never want to show the notification do not call display

@emawby Unfortunately it doesn't work. Here is a code sample:

OneSignal.Notifications.addEventListener(
    'foregroundWillDisplay',
    (notificationReceivedEvent: NotificationWillDisplayEvent) => {
      const notification = notificationReceivedEvent.getNotification();
        if (
          // some condition
        ) {
          notificationReceivedEvent.preventDefault();
          return;
        }
      }
      notification.display();
      }
  );

The listener receives a notification, then notificationReceivedEvent.preventDefault() is called but after about ~10 seconds the notification is displayed anyway.

@emawby I turned on logs with LogLevel.Verbose And here is the Xcode outcome for the notification with preventDefault():

@emawby Even if e. preventDefault() is removed the loggs says it was called:
