On Apple devices, there is a setting that enables the timeout for the requirement to put your lock pin back in. For example, if I set it to 5 minutes, once I unlock my phone, it will remain unlocked for 5 minutes and I can go directly into phone without unlocking again until the screen is off for five minutes. Normally, where it is now, I must unlock every time. I would like to know if there is app to do this, so I don't have to unlock all the time. Sorry for poor English, it is not my native language, thank you.

Welcome to Android Central! That's certainly possible, but it might depend on which device you have. On my Nexus 5, it's Settings>Security>Automatically Lock. There, I can choose how long after the screen goes to sleep that the device will automatically lock. There's also a setting for "Power button instantly locks." Turn that off if you don't want the phone to lock every time you manually turn the screen off with the power button.
