I have seen this article. It does not help. it states the following: If you already use two-factor authentication, you can no longer turn it

off. Certain features in the latest versions of iOS and macOS require

this extra level of security, which is designed to protect your

information. If you recently updated your account, you can unenroll

within two weeks of enrollment. Just open your enrollment confirmation

email and click the link to return to your previous security settings.

Keep in mind, this makes your account less secure and means that you

can't use features that require higher security.

I never wanted this two factor thing. I searched my email and I do not locate an enrollment confirmation email. I upgraded the IOS and then this two factor thing kicked in. How do I get it off my phone?

how do you disable two factor authentication?
