What does everyone have their screen timeout set to?
And what is the default? I have it set to 1 minute, but I swear it goes off faster.

Me three on 5 minutes. I think that was the default, and I haven't changed it.

I tried 1 minute for a while, but it was too short. I have it at 5, but kind of wish there was a 3 minute option since 5 seems kinda long.

I had it at 5 but now at 1. I agree it seems less than the set time when it goes off.i agree it should have a 3 option

I agree a 3 minute option would be nice. Like others have said, 5 seems too long and 1 seems too short. I've gone back to 5 minutes now as 1 minute was too short for me, it seemed more like 30 seconds.

5 Minutes but when I had Quick Setting installed it gave me the default Android options. So I set it different. It seems to work but this was back on 6.1 and I have since then remove the app and put it back to 5.
