Reset to default

Yes, this is set to a default of 3,600 seconds (one hour) for all customers by default.

My recommendation is to change this to a longer time, such as one day or a week.

You can set it here: Stores --> Configuration --> Web --> Default Cookie Sessions

Here's a screenshot of it:

I hope this helps!

    Yes, the Magento 2 system, by default, will keep customers logged in for one hour or keep their cart alive for a single hour.
