Hi Chasity 287


It seems that after you turn on two-factor authentication on some devices, you have a two-week period during which you can turn it off. After that period, you can’t turn off two-factor authentication. To turn it off, open your confirmation email and click the link to return to your previous security settings.

Hope this helps.
