Hey @theoldmapman,

 

Good question! Regrettably, there's no way to change the timeout setting. We appreciate your suggestion and apologize for any inconvenience. I hope this information helps!

I also would like to be in control of when Paypal logs out automatically. Really this is not User Centred Design, so please listen to what your customers want?

Ditto!  This stinks and I've  been dealing with it for 10 years or more.  Very tired of PP, would love to ditch it for something else as it is always 5+ years behind the curve.

This timeout is ABSOLUTELY the worst. Good look trying to view archived invoices and create new ones while having them in other tabs or windows. Before you can copy and paste anything, you've been timed out.

FIX THIS PAYPAL.

Timeout is far too short. Try following your Crypto account and monitor pricing when every minute you are kicked out.... SHAMBLES!!!!!

I do agree, if you want to give a detailed answer to a dispute for instance, you type a long text and when you submit you are kicked from your session!
There ONLY PAYPAL doing this and it's just a NIGHTMARE!
