Why aren't notifications on my lock screen opening to the app after the Lollipop update?

Notifications on lock screen not opening to app after Lollipop update

Just updated and still getting used to this...on my lock screen (set to swipe, no security) I see notifications (as per my settings: "show all content") but when I click on the notification, instead of opening that app, like it's supposed to do, it just makes the notification bright, shows a bright gray square on the bottom half of the screen, and says "swipe screen to unlock"

Pretty frustrating...any ideas?

Welcome to Android Central! Which phone? Sounds like a Samsung. I think that's how you have to open the app from the lockscreen--tap the notification, then swipe to unlock. On my Nexus 5, I have to double-tap the lockscreen notification, and the app opens (as long as I don't have to unlock the screen--I use Smart Lock). If I don't have a Trusted Device connected, then I think after double-tapping the notification, I still have to do my screen unlock pattern.
