Samsung galaxy in stand by

Options
How do I decrease the time between not using my Samsung galaxy and it going into stand by mode  (the point where I need my fingerprint to open it again)  for instance after use I leave it idle, I'd like least time possible

    Settings / Lock Screen / Secure Lock Settings

    Also look at - Settings / Display / scroll down to Screen Timeout

    Thanks for that but I want the phone to lock, not just the screen to go off

    Have you got Smart Lock enabled? This keeps the phone unlocked if you are in a secure location (such as your home) based on the GPS location.

    No I don't think so

    Lock screen>Secure lock settings
    The rest should be self-explanatory.
