If your phone has a corporate or school network profile or is connected to a corporate email, that is a policy set by them.

Apple has disabled the passcode frequency option!!! Help! I'm sick of entering my TouchID and passcode constantly. Apple has disabled the passcode frequency option!!! Help! I'm sick of entering my TouchID and passcode constantly. There used to be an option in Settings/Passcode for deciding how often to require this. You could select 5 minutes, 15 minutes, etc. Now, on newer versions of the OS, they've stripped it down to "immediately." Is there a workaround? I don't want to mess around with the TouchID and passcode all the time. It's ridiculous. Every time I pick up my phone, pretty much, it wants me to confirm my identity.

Phone forces me to change my passcode periodically At one point I installed some security software on my iPhone so I could use it for work (email, etc.). The software forced me to change my passcode periodically (every 60-90 days). I don’t remember the name of the software and I uninstalled it long ago. I may not have uninstalled the software correctly because I am still forced to change my passcode periodically, which I would rather not have to do.

Why do accounts keep requiring one-time passcodes?? When I sign in to my accounts on Amazon, my insurance company, and others, they say my computer isn't recognized and either send a one-time passcode to my iPhone or ask for more information. This behavior was never seen until IIRC one of the Sierras, and it persists. I have tried every combination of settings in Privacy & Security that I can think of, and in Preferences, but I can't get the OS to allow the device to be registered so I don't have to do this every time I sign in. This is happening on all three of my Macs but not on my iPhone or iPads. In addition, on one of my Macs, when of these one-time passcodes is sent via Messages to my iPhone, Safari offers to fill in the passcode field on the web page with the code sent to the iPhone. On the other two Macs, this doesn't happen. Suggestions?
