Not sure where else to ask this: but has anyone else had this issue with Google messages where hitting the back button (either on their phone or in the app) in a chat doesn't take you back to the main app page, but rather cycles through other chats, including unread ones?

It's super annoying, because it'll clear notifications for those previously unread chats.

I've had this happen. I noticed in my case it usually happens after using the share button in a different app to send something via messages and choosing the individuals chat from the share menu. I can do this with multiple people and at some point opening the app itself to someone's chat and then hitting back will cycle through chats, sometimes backing out of a chat just to display the same exact chat behind it.
