Devise's "timeout_in" not working for dev only mode (Ruby on Rails)

I'm simply just trying to disable the feature that requires me to login after inactivity in my development environment. To configure this, I have the following set:

# config/initializers/devise.rb

Devise.setup do |config|
   ...
   config.timeout_in = 30.minutes if Rails.env.production?
   ...
end

However, every time I'm inactive for 30 minutes, I look up and realize I have to login again.

Any suggestions on how to turn this off? Quite surprised that this isn't working since this seems to do the trick for most of other non-devise features.

config.timeout_in has a default value, so if you don't assign it, it will default to 30 minutes. Try this:

config.timeout_in = 1440.minutes if Rails.env.development?

This will give you 24h. I don't know if there is any timeout limit, but you can try 1.year :)

Another option could be to activate the remember me.
