Re: Login timeout
And are these Apple devices? Are these android? Are you using Chrome? Firefox? Something else? Is this the first time? Every time?

Re: Login timeout
Both Apple using Safari, nope not every time but I reckon at least once a week I have to log in
Re: Login timeout
OK... I've been keeping tabs on any logging out and cookie messages.
For reference, I logged out and then in on both Safari and Chrome on the 3rd July. Although I don't primarily use Chrome, I've been checking in with it regularly and it hasn't logged me out or asked for cookies since that initial login. Safari on the other hand:
Logged out: 4th, 7th, 15th, 22nd, 27th
Cookie confirmation: 9th, 16th, 23rd
So they seem unconnected to each other but both happen regularly - cookies seem to be every 7 days and the logging out happens every 3-7 days.

Re: Login timeout

Re: Login timeout
I don't know what to say really
Like I say, coming from the other direction, I've never had any issues with any other sites.
It's not really the biggest problem just a very minor annoyance. Worth knowing though. Also, I didn't keep any notes but I think it's similar on iPhone/Safari too. Maybe just the cookie thing... not sure.
