Hi Joseph, Where do you get a 4 hour setting? I actually just looked at this as I believe the Require Passcode time setting is new in iOS 7. I tapped on it and I get Instantly, after 1 minute, after 5 minutes, after 15 minutes and after 1 hour. On my phone the After 1 Hour setting seems to be the longest I can select.

For practical purposes, you might want to investigate the pass code screen as you will undoubtedly have a selection of timers for which your iDevice will lock. For example, since I don't live alone, here at home I require my passcode lock for 4 hours in an effort to protect sensitive data stored in various apps. On the other hand, when I leave the house, I don't know if I'm going to lose my iDevice or not, but since the possibility exists, I set the passcode for 15 minutes. When I get back home I once again change the passcode back to 4 hours. timothy, thanks for conveying to the list this great info.

Hey, yes you can turn that off. I have had to do this on mine and had practice today of doing it about four or five times for patrons of mine, so here goes the instructions just in case someone hasn't answered this yet. 1 Go into Settings General Pass Code Lock 2 Once there, there is a button that says turn pas code Lock off. Doubletap this and you're asked to enter your pass ode. (you're asked to enter it when you get into passcode Lock screen as well) 3Once you've entered and turned pass code lo k off, I took one more precautionary measure, and swiped one more to the right and went to simple Pass code, which was turned on, and turned that off as well, and was done. Hope this helps and if you have further questions let me know. Thanks again and take care.
