How to Turn off Two-Factor Authentication on Apple Devices
2FA is not tied to a specific device like your iPhone or MacBook. Instead, it connects to your Apple ID. Apple removed the ability to cancel two-factor authentication following a 14-day grace period.
During the 14-day grace period, use these steps to disable 2FA:
Locate the two-factor authentication enrollment email, which you received at the email address associated with your Apple ID when you activated 2FA. Scroll toward the bottom of the email and select a link or button intended to return your account to its previous security settings. This process reverts other security settings that have changed on your account since enrolling in 2FA. Follow the on-screen prompts to commit these changes.
If Disabling 2FA is a Requirement
If you’re in a predicament where the grace period has expired, and you must remove 2FA, contact Apple Support.
