Capacitor App.getLaunchUrl() issue on Android device

Hello everyone I am trying to implement deep linking using capacitor methods like App.getLaunchUrl().
everything work fine when App is closed but when the App is opened in the background the App.getLaunchUrl() returns empty.
This is the versions which I am using:

 {
    "@capacitor/android": "^2.1.0",
    "@capacitor/core": "2.1.0",
    "@capacitor/ios": "^2.1.0",

const { Storage } = Plugins;
const { App: CapApp } = Plugins;
const App: React.FC = () => {
  // const history = useHistory();

  const [hasData, setHasData] = useState(false);
  const [URL, setURL]: any = useState(null);
  const [store, dispatch] = useReducer(reducer, initialState);
  const getObject = async () => {

    const user = JSON.parse(ret.value);
    return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
      resolve(user);
    });
  };

  Plugins.App.addListener("appUrlOpen", (data: any) => {
    console.log("from app URL in APP Component");
    console.log(data);
    const resultID = data.url.split("/")[data.url.split("/").length - 1];
    setURL("/circle/" + resultID);
  });
  Plugins.App.addListener("appStateChange", async (state: any) => {
    console.log("from app state change in APP Component", state);
    const a = await Plugins.App.getLaunchUrl().then((ret) => {
      console.log(ret);
      if (ret.url !== "") {
        const resultID = ret.url.split("/")[ret.url.split("/").length - 1];
        setURL("/circle/" + resultID);
      } else {
        setURL(null);
      }
    });
    setTimeout(() => {
      console.log("in the settime out", a);
    }, 2000);
  });
  useEffect(() => {
    getObject().then((data: any) => {
      // console.log(data);
      if (data !== null) {
        setHasData(true);
      }
      Plugins.App.getLaunchUrl().then((ret) => {
        // console.log(ret);
        if (ret.url !== "") {
          // console.log("outside of useEffect");
          // console.log(ret.url.split("/"));
          const resultID = ret.url.split("/")[ret.url.split("/").length - 1];

          setURL("/circle/" + resultID);
        } else {
          setURL(null);
        }
      });
      // console.log(ret);
    });
  }, []);
  return (
    <Context.Provider value={{ store, dispatch }}>
      <IonApp>
        <IonReactRouter>
          {/* <AppUrlListener></AppUrlListener> */}
          {URL !== null && <Redirect to={URL} />}
          <IonRouterOutlet>
            <Route path="/circle/:id" component={InvitationPage} exact />
            <Route exact path="/" component={hasData ? HomePage : InroPage} />
            <Route exact path="/home-page" component={HomePage} />
            <Route path="/login" component={Login} />
            <Route path="/circle-detail/:id" component={CircleDetail} exact />
            <Route path="/verification" component={Verfication} />
            <Route path="/profile" component={Profile} />
            <Route path="/home" component={Home} exact={true} />
          </IonRouterOutlet>
        </IonReactRouter>
      </IonApp>
    </Context.Provider>
  );
};

export default App;

Also as you see I have tried to get the launch URL when the App state is changing.
And I tried other different methods as you can see inside the code like appUrlOpen.
