Foreground Service Stopself after hours working

Question

I did a Foreground Service using Kotlin. It's works , but after seven hours running my service stop and my app returned to its first page (login page). But the only method to stop my service is executed when I click in a "stop service" button, so why my service is stopping after 7 hours if i didn't press any button? i'm using a moto g7, android 9.0

class RastreioService : Service() {

companion object {
    var serviceAtivado = false //service activated
}
override fun onBind(intent: Intent?): IBinder? {
    TODO("Not yet implemented")
}

override fun onCreate() {
    super.onCreate()
    serviceAtivado = true

    val notificationIntent = Intent(this, RastreioService::class.java)
    val pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, notificationIntent, 0);

    val notification = Notification.Builder(this, "1")
        .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_gps_ativo)
        .setContentTitle("Localização Sendo Acessada")
        .setContentText("A sua localização está sendo acessada")
        .setContentIntent(pendingIntent)
        .build()

    startForeground(1, notification)

    /*request location methods*/
}

override fun onStartCommand(intent: Intent?, flags: Int, startId: Int): Int {

    return START_NOT_STICKY
}

override fun onDestroy() {
    serviceAtivado = false
    super.onDestroy()
    this.gerenciadorDeLocalizacao.DesativarBuscaPorLocalizaca()
}

}

Which device you are using? this device is having stock or custom ROM. look out this answers, https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52425222/foreground-service-getting-killed-from-oreo — mdroid, Jul 02 '20 at 13:38
Is there any option in device setting like an Auto startup or battery optimization? If it has, checks your app enables the permission or not. — mdroid, Jul 02 '20 at 13:49

A foreground service can still be killed by the OS, you have no guarantees that the service will last forever. A foreground service just makes it less likely to be killed

OS still can shut down services if it feels like it needs to, but it can be resumed afterward. on onStartCommand you are returning START_NOT_STICKY you can use which does not re start the service. You can use START_REDELIVER_INTENT to save progress of your service and re start it from where it left of. Link to the docs
