Just turn off power-saving mode while playing. It keeps the app active, but remember to charge up more often!
Go into your app settings and make sure Pokemon GO has the necessary permissions to run in the background. Sometimes that's all it takes!
Try disabling battery optimization for Pokemon GO in your device settings. It will use more battery, but it won't close as much!
Honestly, there's no perfect fix. Just make sure your phone's settings are optimized for it and hope for the best.
