Does this ever really happen though? It's rare for my phone to sit there for more than 15 minutes without me messing with it.
- fosk 9y agoYou are missing the point. It's not for you to re-enter the PIN every once in a while, it's to prevent a potential attacker with physical access to your phone to unlock it, exactly when the phone itself it's not phisically with you (and so you have nothing to mess with). Anyways it would only mitigate the risk without fixing the root problem.
