edit 3: https://sh.itjust.works/post/4724765 :(
edit 2: It doesn't require root, I don't know why I didn't use this application. The application I was talking about was different.
edit: I think it required root. I can't root :(
actually, I tried it out, but I don't know how to make it do this. Not very user friendly
I tried and the app doesn't seem to work on my phone, but in theory:
Rule > add rule > add trigger > device starts > yes
Add action > start another program > scroll down > select app (pick app) + select activity + choose manually > probably pick "main" activity
Save rule (this where I get an error and idk why)
Back to overview > start service
Someone lmk if this works, the app complains about writable memory and won't save rules for me.
Thank you Very Very much! I have asked this question around a bit and I haven't gotten an answer anywhere but here.
Also, I just freaking made a video following what you said
