Suggested Timeout Durations for Various Scenarios
The best duration differs for everyone. It depends on your own routine and the venue. From what I’ve seen and heard from players, here are some sensible suggestions. For a shared computer or any public space, pick a short timeout of 5-10 minutes. This protects the device quickly if you get distracted or have to leave in a hurry. For a personal device at home, 15-25 minutes strikes a nice balance. It maintains security without logging you out every time you pause to grab a drink. If you’re immersed for a long, uninterrupted session on a completely private device, you could set it to 30-45 minutes. Turning the feature off completely is not recommended, as you lose that safety net. Think about where and how you usually play, then try a duration that feels both useful and secure.
