# Timeout Setting

The timeout feature will set some minutes of inactivity before the user is automatically logged out from the application. So, to allow the Timeout feature, a user is required to have the [permission called Admin](/blocworx-documentation/admin-and-development/roles-and-permissions.md). While logged in as an admin, go to ***Admin & Development*** and then ***App Settings.*** 

After that, the fields similar to the image below will be available for editing.

Now, just define how long a user may stay inactive before being logged out automatically.
