why so long to reset apple id password

I cannot believe I have to wait 2 weeks to have my apple ID password reset. When calling, I was told 24 hours I would receive a reset text.....to my surprise, I received and email saying I have to wait 2 weeks!

Android is looking good about now! I'm so angry.


iPhone SE, iOS 15

The Recovery Process is an automated process and the length of time it takes can vary a lot. Apple ID Support can only answer your questions. They can't intervene in or speed up the process. The article below has some suggestions to shorten the time the process takes.

The only way to reset it instantly is to remember the password and sign into your Apple ID.
