(Solved) Refresh locks web vault even though I have it set to 15 minutes

Web vault setting is 15 minute lock, NOT ‘on browser refresh’. Refresh locks it.

Tried reaching out on Twitter and was just told “refresh is similar to closing the tab or browser so this is as expected for vault protection” but then why have an option to lock on refresh?

Didn’t receive clarification on Twitter so hoping someone here can help

The timeout option is really to keep it from locking until the browser is refreshed.

Okay, I suppose that makes sense. Thanks for the quick reply!
