Can I use Google Authenticator for apple.id.com?

I was wondering if I could use Google Authenticator for apple.id.com, so I could sign in with a 2FA. I am asking this question because I want to have as much of my stuff secured as best as possible. I mean who doesn’t. Please respond ASAP so I could have 2FA if possible.

Thanks,

Google Authenticator For 2FA set up on the iCloud account, can you use Google Authenticator App. Our entire company (mixed Windows and OS) shares our one Apple ID for access to our company calendar and a few Cloud Numbers docs. Everyone signs in with the same Apple ID (there are only 5 of us - family members). For EVERYTHING else security, we use Google Authenticator for 2FA verification (with Chrome, with Microsoft, with LastPass, with EVERYTHING). We'd like to use it for iCloud as well, but don't see a way how.

Apple’s 2FA does not use any secondary authenticator app.

The secondary factor to log in is a code sent to trusted devices via a system message or to trusted phone numbers as an SMS or audio message.
