I wish I had more control over the mobile experience though. For example, my run-tracker apps will get closed and stop tracking me if I open too many apps during my run while leaving Spotify, Youtube, and my podcast apps open.

I'd like to be able to somehow pin the run-tracker as top priority. Sucks to realize after a run or bike ride that it stopped recording 20min into it.

Your run tracker should have a proper background service to make that not happen, or a persistent notification widget. If it is still happening, look around your power saving options to exempt it from being killed due to "excessive power usage" when in the background.
