I've had that happen on Slack mobile so much I just don't trust it anymore. I always tell people (even if it seems counterintuitive) to email me when things are urgent because very rarely (or not, since I can't tell), it's decided not to show me critical messages.

I get that a lot. A DM arrives, there's a red blob with a number next to the sender's name, but the actual message doesn't appear.

Everyone I've talked with has experienced this, yet it's been a bug for years. I don't understand. Do Slack not use their own product?!
