Cookie issues with Magento 2

Cookie issues with Magento 2

I set the customer cookie to 1 year (525600) under stores/config/customer/customer config for both Online Minutes Interval and Customer Data Lifetime.
 

Magento still logs my customers out after 15 minutes.

 

I tried changing session.gc_maxlifetime from it's default 1440 to 525600 and it didn't do anything.

 

I then tried changing session.cookie_lifetime to 525600, and that throws up errors, and breaks the application.

 

I tried changing my app/etc/env.php "session" to

   'session' => [
        'save' => 'files'
        'save_path' => '/var/session'
    ],

I use /pub as doc root, so I created a var/session directory in /pub, but that didn't change anything.

 

How can I keep my customers logged in for a long time without breaking my site?

 

Thank you

Try       Stores > Configuration > General > Web > Default Cookie Settings > Cookie Lifetime > 

 

Increase lifetime as per your requirement then check.
