If its been more than 14 days since it was turned on, no. Otherwise, refer to the email you received when you first turned it on, to turn it off.


With that said however, unless you are doing something wrong, 2 Factor authentication is designed to be transparent to the user in day to day usage. And should only be required when signing in to a new device, or signing in to iCloud from a browser you've never signed in on before.

Once signed in, you won’t be asked for a verification code on that

device again unless you sign out completely, erase the device, or need

to change your password for security reasons. When you sign in on the

web, you can choose to trust your browser, so you won’t be asked for a

verification code the next time you sign in from that computer.
