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.

iPhone SE, iOS 15
