I'm not used to telling Siri to open anything, except Compass, so just go to 
Home Screen? Thanks.

While you are on the phone, you can press the Home button.  Then you can go 
into the Messages app or whatever app you want o check.  The only thing is that 
you can’t tell SIRI to open an app while you are on the phone.
