Sep 21, 2013 6:12 PM in response to trucker68by randers4,You should only be prompted for the password in the future when you try to turn Find My iPhone off, which is a new security measure in iOS 7 and cannot be disabled. Is it continuing to prompt you for the password?

You can turn off passcode lock there. However, it's a very, very bad idea to not use a passcode in a mobile device. Without a passcode someone that steals or finds your device will instantly have enough information about you to take over your life!!! Apple should be applauded for forcing this issue.
A better suggestion would be to set the"auto-lock" setting to 5 or 10 minutes. The default 2 min. is indeed very short.
