Graphene's autoreboot has 12 different options (excluding disabling it) ranging from 72 hours down to 10 minutes and the timer is reset each time the device is unlocked. Tbh I think a 1 minute setting would actually be nice (for things like when you are going through customs, etc) but I get why they don't provide it.

Not against it, but I'm genuinely curious what the use case would be for that?

I guess as a prank, just like setting the language to Chinese for English speakers.

Could be useful in a scenario where you won't be using your phone often and really want to maximize battery life.

A reboot will eat a lot more energy than a proper suspend.

Why would you want it to auto-reboot after one minute?

The minimum on GrapheneOS is 10 min and the maximum is 72 hours. It can also be disabled.

No, that is unrealistic. Please stop trolling

How so?

The system only reboots once it has been locked for a particular duration. Setting it to 1 minute basically says: put the system into a more secure state (e.g. purge unencrypted memory) and ensure that it is ready to go when I next need it. That said, while it is not unrealistic it would be problematic since accidentally letting the phone lock (e.g. input timeout) would result in a time consuming reboot.
