I don't have this problem. Sounds like your phone's killing the app when you're switching. Maybe it's an older phone with less RAM or something?
It's a Samsung Galaxy A32. Would it qualify as older and/or lacking RAM? Now that I'm thinking of it it's been taking ages to start every time I turn it off or reboot...
A32 has between 6GB and 8GB of ram, my s24 ultra has 12GB, so yours isn't low and boost is using 111mb, so it's probably not that. (You can see all this in device care in the settings) Edit: I guess maybe it could still be that, my phone is technically using around 6GB. If your phone is approaching that I guess it could still close boost.
It does still sound like the phone's killing the app, which it could be doing for battery life. I think I saw in another reply that you turned off battery optimization but that's all I can think of. If you go to settings > apps > boost > battery, is that set to unrestricted?
Also, when you go to recent apps, do you ever press close all before this happens? Because that will close boost and cause this as well. If you just open another app for a bit and switch back to boost it should remain where it was.
