For every positive integer $m$, define $S_{m}=\{n: m \mid f(n)\}$.

Lemma. If the set $S_{m}$ is infinite, then $S_{m}=\{d, 2 d, 3 d, \ldots\}=d \cdot \mathbb{Z}_{>0}$ for some positive integer $d$.

Proof. Let $d=\min S_{m}$; the definition of $S_{m}$ yields $m \mid f(d)$.
Whenever $n \in S_{m}$ and $n>d$, we have $m|f(n)| f(n-d)+f(d)$, so $m \mid f(n-d)$ and therefore $n-d \in S_{m}$. Let $r \leqslant d$ be the least positive integer with $n \equiv r(\bmod d)$; repeating the same step, we can see that $n-d, n-2 d, \ldots, r \in S_{m}$. By the minimality of $d$, this shows $r=d$ and therefore $d \mid n$.
Starting from an arbitrarily large element of $S_{m}$, the process above reaches all multiples of $d$; so they all are elements of $S_{m}$.

The solution for the problem will be split into two cases.

Case 1: The function $f$ is bounded.

Call a prime $p$ frequent if the set $S_{p}$ is infinite, i.e., if $p$ divides $f(n)$ for infinitely many positive integers $n$; otherwise call $p$ sporadic. Since the function $f$ is bounded, there are only a finite number of primes that divide at least one $f(n)$; so altogether there are finitely many numbers $n$ such that $f(n)$ has a sporadic prime divisor. Let $N$ be a positive integer, greater than all those numbers $n$.
Let $p_{1}, \ldots, p_{k}$ be the frequent primes. By the lemma we have $S_{p_{i}}=d_{i} \cdot \mathbb{Z}_{>0}$ for some $d_{i}$. Consider the number
$$n=N d_{1} d_{2} \cdots d_{k}+1$$
Due to $n>N$, all prime divisors of $f(n)$ are frequent primes. Let $p_{i}$ be any frequent prime divisor of $f(n)$. Then $n \in S_{p_{i}}$, and therefore $d_{i} \mid n$. But $n \equiv 1\left(\bmod d_{i}\right)$, which means $d_{i}=1$. Hence $S_{p_{i}}=1 \cdot \mathbb{Z}_{>0}=\mathbb{Z}_{>0}$ and therefore $p_{i}$ is a common divisor of all values $f(n)$.

Case 2: $f$ is unbounded.

We prove that $f(1)$ divides all $f(n)$.
Let $a=f(1)$. Since $1 \in S_{a}$, by the lemma it suffices to prove that $S_{a}$ is an infinite set.
Call a positive integer $p$ a peak if $f(p)>\max (f(1), \ldots, f(p-1))$. Since $f$ is not bounded, there are infinitely many peaks. Let $1=p_{1}<p_{2}<\ldots$ be the sequence of all peaks, and let $h_{k}=f\left(p_{k}\right)$. Notice that for any peak $p_{i}$ and for any $k<p_{i}$, we have $f\left(p_{i}\right) \mid f(k)+f\left(p_{i}-k\right)< 2 f\left(p_{i}\right)$, hence
$$\begin{equation*} f(k)+f\left(p_{i}-k\right)=f\left(p_{i}\right)=h_{i} \tag{1} \end{equation*}$$
By the pigeonhole principle, among the numbers $h_{1}, h_{2}, \ldots$ there are infinitely many that are congruent modulo $a$. Let $k_{0}<k_{1}<k_{2}<\ldots$ be an infinite sequence of positive integers such that $h_{k_{0}} \equiv h_{k_{1}} \equiv \ldots(\bmod a)$. Notice that
$$f\left(p_{k_{i}}-p_{k_{0}}\right)=f\left(p_{k_{i}}\right)-f\left(p_{k_{0}}\right)=h_{k_{i}}-h_{k_{0}} \equiv 0 \quad(\bmod a),$$
so $p_{k_{i}}-p_{k_{0}} \in S_{a}$ for all $i=1,2, \ldots$. This provides infinitely many elements in $S_{a}$.
Hence, $S_{a}$ is an infinite set, and therefore $f(1)=a$ divides $f(n)$ for every $n$.

Let $d_{n}=\operatorname{gcd}(f(n), f(1))$. From $d_{n+1} \mid f(1)$ and $d_{n+1}|f(n+1)| f(n)+f(1)$, we can see that $d_{n+1} \mid f(n)$; then $d_{n+1} \mid \operatorname{gcd}(f(n), f(1))=d_{n}$. So the sequence $d_{1}, d_{2}, \ldots$ is nonincreasing in the sense that every element is a divisor of the previous elements. Let $d=\min \left(d_{1}, d_{2}, \ldots\right)=\operatorname{gcd}\left(d_{1} . d_{2}, \ldots\right)=\operatorname{gcd}(f(1), f(2), \ldots) ;$ we have to prove $d \geqslant 2$.
For the sake of contradiction, suppose that the statement is wrong, so $d=1$; that means there is some index $n_{0}$ such that $d_{n}=1$ for every $n \geqslant n_{0}$, i.e., $f(n)$ is coprime with $f(1)$.

Claim 1. If $2^{k} \geqslant n_{0}$ then $f\left(2^{k}\right) \leqslant 2^{k}$.

Proof. By the condition, $f(2 n) \mid 2 f(n)$; a trivial induction yields $f\left(2^{k}\right) \mid 2^{k} f(1)$. If $2^{k} \geqslant n_{0}$ then $f\left(2^{k}\right)$ is coprime with $f(1)$, so $f\left(2^{k}\right)$ is a divisor of $2^{k}$.

Claim 2. There is a constant $C$ such that $f(n)<n+C$ for every $n$.

Proof. Take the first power of 2 which is greater than or equal to $n_{0}$ : let $K=2^{k} \geqslant n_{0}$. By Claim 1, we have $f(K) \leqslant K$. Notice that $f(n+K) \mid f(n)+f(K)$ implies $f(n+K) \leqslant f(n)+f(K) \leqslant f(n)+K$. If $n=t K+r$ for some $t \geqslant 0$ and $1 \leqslant r \leqslant K$, then we conclude
$f(n) \leqslant K+f(n-K) \leqslant 2 K+f(n-2 K) \leqslant \ldots \leqslant t K+f(r)<n+\max (f(1), f(2), \ldots, f(K))$, so the claim is true with $C=\max (f(1), \ldots, f(K))$.

Claim 3. If $a, b \in \mathbb{Z}_{>0}$ are coprime then $\operatorname{gcd}(f(a), f(b)) \mid f(1)$. In particular, if $a, b \geqslant n_{0}$ are coprime then $f(a)$ and $f(b)$ are coprime.

Proof. Let $d=\operatorname{gcd}(f(a), f(b))$. We can replicate Euclid's algorithm. Formally, apply induction on $a+b$. If $a=1$ or $b=1$ then we already have $d \mid f(1)$.
Without loss of generality, suppose $1<a<b$. Then $d \mid f(a)$ and $d|f(b)| f(a)+f(b-a)$, so $d \mid f(b-a)$. Therefore $d$ divides $\operatorname{gcd}(f(a), f(b-a))$ which is a divisor of $f(1)$ by the induction hypothesis.

Let $p_{1}<p_{2}<\ldots$ be the sequence of all prime numbers; for every $k$, let $q_{k}$ be the lowest power of $p_{k}$ with $q_{k} \geqslant n_{0}$. (Notice that there are only finitely many positive integers with $q_{k} \neq p_{k}$.)
Take a positive integer $N$, and consider the numbers
$$f(1), f\left(q_{1}\right), f\left(q_{2}\right), \ldots, f\left(q_{N}\right)$$
Here we have $N+1$ numbers, each being greater than 1 , and they are pairwise coprime by Claim 3. Therefore, they have at least $N+1$ different prime divisors in total, and their greatest prime divisor is at least $p_{N+1}$. Hence, $\max \left(f(1), f\left(q_{1}\right), \ldots, f\left(q_{N}\right)\right) \geqslant p_{N+1}$.
Choose $N$ such that $\max \left(q_{1}, \ldots, q_{N}\right)=p_{N}$ (this is achieved if $N$ is sufficiently large), and $p_{N+1}-p_{N}>C$ (that is possible, because there are arbitrarily long gaps between the primes). Then we establish a contradiction
$$p_{N+1} \leqslant \max \left(f(1), f\left(q_{1}\right), \ldots, f\left(q_{N}\right)\right)<\max \left(1+C, q_{1}+C, \ldots, q_{N}+C\right)=p_{N}+C<p_{N+1}$$
which proves the statement.
