When I enabled the pin code option for the keychain, I learned that it also has a timer that requires you to input the pin code again after a certain amount of time(pretty short in my experience). I would like an option that lets you customize the timeout period of it to for example, 30 minutes.

Would also be good to have it be per session, once a day, week etc…

This is not yet available on Android (0.6.1). Not sure about iOS. Added it to the [Platform feature parity (overview)](https://community.anytype.io/t/platform-feature-parity-overview/5318).
