I've noticed that Webroot secure anywhere doesn't automatically start when my Android phone restarts. How can I fix this?

I should mention, I've got a Samsung s10+, Android version 10, UI 2.1, security updated to June 2020.

Webroot Mobile secure anywhere 5.5.6.46428 (up-to-date).

And I'm a premium user. 

I tried reinstalling. I tried making the app an admin. Nothing works.

Quick question: do you have battery optimization on your phone? If you do, Webroot shouldn't be on that list, but if it is set it to "not optimized" and see if that helps. No antivirus should be, really, since the optimization technically disables your protection (temporarily)
