When I login I choose automatically log me in option. Past few days I keep finding that I have to login again.

any recent updates on your computer or web browser? If computer is automatically "cleaning" cookies or temporary internet files (and updates have been known to trigger or turn on that feature) your auto-login or session cookie gets deleted.

Nothing different going on that I'm aware of. I do have to keep uninstalling google app updates so that my android auto voice assistant will work. Been doing it for long time and google does not seem to care.

OK well either way, pretty much the logout happens when your session cookie gets deleted, or your browser doesnt send it (or firewall blocks it) so software starts a new session, which ends up needing a new login. lot of things can cause it from browsers, firewalls, conflicting software updates, "cookie cleaners" (McAfee is nasty about that - if you have Mcafee and it updates and silently re-activates what they call "safe Browsing" even after you've disabled it... I had that problem myself until I finally completely un-installed and deleted McAfee and got AVG instead)

Still happening. Have not been able to trace it to phone activity yet but certainly my adroid auto is still messing up too.

No idea.. must be something to do with your browser or computer's (or antivirus) security settings that is deleting your session and login cookies.. You're the only one reporting this sort of issue - I have not had that happen at all in quite a long time and the few times that it did, I found that the server had been upgraded or rebooted (which clears temporary server side files that include session data) As far as I know no one else has been reporting any similar issues..
