I lost both my iphones. I try to erase on find my iphone but apple wants two factor verification by text but I do not have a phone to get the code. How do I bypass the two factor verification to erase iphone via find my phone?
Hi charlesdiss,
I suspect you will need that code. You can look into adding more ways to get a code such as multiple telephone numbers where you can receive a text or a phone call. The document Check your Apple ID device list to find where you're signed in - Apple Support tells you how to do this.
If you had set up an Account Recovery Contact ( Set up an account recovery contact - Apple Support ) you can get a code that way.
If you can’t sign in, access a trusted device, reset your password, or receive verification codes, you can request account recovery to regain access to your account.
