If you don't have a nudge from Apple under Apple ID Suggestions, you can instead open Settings > Password & Security, then tap the Turn on Two-Factor Authentication link. Tap Turn On, then Continue to begin the setup process. Tap Apple ID Suggestions and you should see Turn On Two-Factor Authentication. If you haven't yet set up 2FA, you will likely get a nudge from Apple reminding you to do so.
If you want to set up the 2FA verification code, go to Settings on an iPhone or iPad and tap your name at the top of the screen. However, the security benefits far outweigh any inconvenience involved in verifying your account. Even if your password is compromised, anyone who tries to access your account would be unable to sign in without the authorization code or your physical security key.īefore you set this up, be warned that there is no way to disable 2FA once it's turned on. Whether you use the verification code or security key, the process creates a trusted relationship between an Apple device and your Apple ID. With the jump to iOS 16.3, iPadOS 16.3, and macOS Ventura 13.2 in 2023, Apple also lets you use a physical security key as your authentication method in place of a numeric code.
