Is there a way to autostart Dropbox on my Android device (Galaxy s22)?

Hello!  Every time I boot my phone, I have to remember to open Dropbox because I always want it on for various reasons (like downloading photos to my computer automatically when I'm home).  I'm sure there must be some way to say, "Every time I boot my Galaxy s22, please open Dropbox" but I can't find steps to do that on youtube or google.  Is there a way?

    I dont believe so via Dropbox natively, no.

    I'm very open to an Android answer that is not natively Dropbox.  There just must be some way to tell my Android, "Whenever you boot, open Dropbox."
