How come the require passcode on my 5s iPhone only has the option of IMMEDIATELY. It will not let me change it to anything else. On my old phone, I could set the passcode to be good for 5 minutes or longer?
Am I missing something here?
Is it really so bad that some of us enjoy using these forums to engage in a shared complaint session? And given the technical knowledge level of the "Apple Geniuses" that I've met I'd be willing to bet that they read these forums.

This is a user-to-user technical assistance forum. When you agreed to the terms of use of this forum, you acknowledged that, and agreed to follow those rules.
So, yes, because this is not a forum for 'complaints', it really is 'bad' to break the rules of the forum.
Consider this; if you visited a friend that asked you to make sure that you wiped the dirt off the bottom of your shoes before entering, and even provided a 'Welcome' mat to do so, but you ignored that and tracked dirt into his house, is that polite behavior?
You are a guest in this 'house', as we all are. It is simply good manners to follow the rules of the house.
www.apple.com/feedback, click on the appropriate link and let Apple know you would like a change, because Apple does not come to the forum for feedback.
You just wasted your time posting here. This is a user-to-user technical support forum. Apple does not read messages posted here. To communicate with Apple go to http://apple.com/feedback.
Restrictions are turned OFF.
I do have a Microsoft Exchange email...but its from my work (a hospital)...and my previous phone (iPhone 5) did not have this restriction.
OK...let me state my problem again in simpler terms.
I have only ONE option for REQUIRE PASSCODE and the only option is IMMEDIATELY.
Sorry if I was confusing.
Very strange. I get a whole list of options.
Thanks, Wally. That's valuable info. As I don't have a 5S (yet) I'll be able to share that the next time the question comes up.
2nd this comment, really annoying!!!!!
Ok - Thanks I submitted the request. Others please do as well so they can see the demand for this change.

Ok, so I thought 7.0.3 was supposed to fix this and allow a delay before the passcode is expected when fingerprint ID is switched on, but it still only offers "immediately" on my 5s.
And yes I did let apple know
What he said ( Trialnterror69). Me too.
