Find my iPhone

I logged into find my iPhone yesterday and didn't sign out. I assumed it would automatically sign me out.
I went back into it today and I was still signed in. I waited iver an hour to see if it'll sign me out but it's not.
I'm on iOS 8 but I reember on iOS 7 it did sign me out if I didn't do it.
Has anyone else noticed this too?

Found this Apple help link http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2610

"If you select “Keep me signed in,” then anytime you return to iCloud.com within two weeks you are not asked to sign in (except to use Find My iPhone, which continues to require your password). You stay signed into iCloud.com even if you refresh your browser window, close the browser window where you are signed into iCloud, or quit the web browser."

Weird this is happening as from http://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT202303

"You are automatically signed out of the Find My iPhone app (on device or on the web) after 15 minutes of inactivity."

Their is a sign out tab on the app if you wish to.

This is why I'm confused. If I was to leave my phone somewhere then if your like me and have a few Apple devices I could easily be tracked home as the iPad and ipod are always at home. I know I could sign in and block the device but if it was to fall into the wrong hands they can turn it off and then it's pointless I think

I know you can sign out manually what I can't get my head round is the fact that you are supposed to get signed out automatically after a certain length of time
