Can I disable two-factor authentication?

I want to disable the two-factor authentication because it's just an inconvenience. I see there's no option in my settings or on my phone. Is there anyway apple can help?

If you have had two-factor authentication with your Apple ID for over 14 days then you are out of the opt-out window. You, therefore, cannot disable it. The other option is to create a new Apple ID to use and then within 14 days of its creation, you can opt-out of two factor authentication.

I strongly advise you to NOT disable two-factor authentication because it is a security measure to protect your data and your account.
