Backup does not work as expected

This is a long standing issue in the app.

1. I’ve both background and foreground backup turned on
2. when I open the app, and go to the backup section, it starts backing up
3. if I close the app, or just leave it open and use any other app, backup stops, and resumes at the last backing up pic if I bring the app back into foreground

Basically I’ve to leave the app open, in the foreground and leave the screen on to have backup go - otherwise it just doesn’t back up.

What am I doing wrong?
