You can easily increase session lifetime in laravel 5, laravel 6 and laravel 7 version.
If you want to increase your session life time then you can easily do it from configuration file in laravel. laravel provide session.php there is a ‘lifetime’ key option for setting time in minutes. in session configuration file there is a also several option for set driver, timeout, expire_on_close and encrypt etc.
Basically, you can not set lifetime session for forever but you can set in minutes for session expiration time. so i will set 1 year time for session expire.
60 * 24 * 365 = 525600

config/session.php
<?php
use IlluminateSupportStr;
return [
.....
'lifetime' => env('SESSION_LIFETIME', 120),
.....
]
Solution 2: Using Config File
config/session.php
<?php

.....
]
