I already have the Apple TV app on my TV, I login using my Apple ID and password and then the TV says it will send a verification code to my phone but it never arrives. If I use iTunes or the apple.id.apple.com site the code is sent but Apple TV will not send the code so I cannot login to Apple TV. Any thoughts?
Apple TV
I was able to work around it. On the login screen there is also a QR code method of logging in. Instead of entering the login on the TV as I did last time, I scanned the QR code on my phone and logged in that way. I was still asked for 2-stage verification and again the code did not arrive but at least on my phone there was a DIDN'T GET A CODE? link and I used that to get another one. It worked. I am 56 years old and usually resourceful enough to navigate around things like this but I envision a life when I'm older full or swearing and shaking my fists at the sky because I'm being crushed by technology. In the meantime... Ted Lasso can soothe my jangled nerves. :D Thanks to all for the help.

I think you can opt to get a text:
Get a verification code and sign in with two-factor authentication - Apple Support
Get a text or phone call
If you don’t have a trusted device handy, you can have a verification code sent to your trusted phone number as a text message or phone call.
1. Click Didn't get a verification code on the sign in screen.
2. Choose to have the code sent to your trusted phone number.
3. You'll get a text message or phone call from Apple with your verification code.
4. Enter the code on your other device to complete sign in.
There is a 14 day grace period for trying out two-factor authentication.
If the issue persists, then I would suggest to contact an expert from the Apple Support staff for further assistance. Contact Apple for support and service (phone numbers) or start your support request online (chat/email/callback).
My phone is android and my notebook is HP. My Apple ID account does have my correct phone number for my android. Even just now when I wanted to reply, I needed 2-step verification and the first time I did not receive a code and I had to click on DIDN'T GET A CODE? on the screen. But on my TV, there is no DIDN'T GET A CODE? link... just the six boxes to enter the code which never comes. I also learned that once you turn on 2-step verification you cannot turn it off so I don't know what I'm supposed to do. I'm stuck in a box.
You can always manually request a fresh new verification code on your Apple device. Get a verification code and sign in with two-factor authentication - Apple Support
I don't have an Apple device, and my Fire stick app doesn't offer to send a text to my android phone. Any help?
Same here - LG tv, Fire tv stick, Android phone
Woo hoo! - worked for me too. Thank you, thank you ER_Pemberton
Hooray! Glad it worked for you!
My new LG TV with Apple TV will not send me a verification code so I cannot login to Apple TV
