TWO FACTOR AUTHENTICATION PROBLEM

My iPhone 8plus is on iOS 13.3.1 but it doesn't give me option to turn on two factor authentication. What can I do? Nothing I've read seems to help.

The two-factor authentication setting is associated with your Apple ID, and which can be accessed via various paths.

On your iPhone, selecting your Apple ID within Settings gets you to the settings associated with your Apple ID.

Among the choices, Password & Security is what you'll want to access.

That'll give you an option to change your password, and will give you the setting of two-factor associated with the Apple ID.

If you have no two-factor option shown, is this iPhone associated with a business or organization, or have profiles loaded?
