Run it from the terminal.
Umm no. That will tell you almost nothing about it's behaviour when started during boot.
The way I understood the question was that the app crashes when it starts, I did not thing of it as starts up = on boot.

Yeah. That's reasonable given the OP is unclear.
But even if it is on boot, if run from the terminal it shows any errors, it may help with find why it does not run on boot, assuming those errors are related.

That's the thing. Things, especially home grown things, will often run fine in the terminal (or from an IDE) but will fail when someone tries to start them at boot. I've lost count of all the "help my code runs in the terminal/thonny but doesn't run when I try to start it at boot" posts on here. Those are usually compounded, at least in code written by beginners and some amatuers, by limited Linux knowledge, a lack of error handling (and reporting/capture), and a lack of debugging output in their code.

But, really, the OP hasn't given us anywhere near enough information for us to be able to offer truely useful advice (let a lone a solution) except, perhaps, first find the error (section 8.1 of my guide I linked to above).
