How do I get a verification code on my phone instead of my apple device?

I signed up for Apple TV+ today using my Macbook Air. I went home to use Apple TV+ and it only sends the verification code to my apple devices, not my cell phone. If I sign in via a web browser it allows me to send the verification code to my Phone.


I leave my Mac at work.


Is there a fix for this?

You can manually request a verification code on your iPhone/iPad/iPod/Mac at any time you need a code.

Click ‘Didn't get a verification code’ to have the system send a code as text message or voice call to a non-Apple phone.
