Good evening house. I have a very pressing issue.

Whenever I start my car in the morning and shift my gear to drive, the car doesn't accelerate well. The engine keeps revving but the car does not accelerate accordingly.

However, the issue revolves itself after driving for few minutes when the engine has become a bit hot.

Please what could be the cause.
What type of car and year?

At the bolded buy Cab cleaner and tell your mechanic to clean the throttle body AKA injector mouth.
The right cleaner to buy is mass air flow cleaner. CRC mass air flow cleaner.

Go for scanning. It’s maybe be misfire. Either plugs or ignition coils are bad.

This is a little bit confusing.... What's full start....

It's either the engine is running
or
you just turned on the ignition without starting the car(IE engine is not running)

If your engine is not running and your have the information displayed on the picture you posted ... Your car is pretty much ok....

If you engine is running.. and you have this picture on your dash.... You have everything to worry about your matrix
