If you don't have another trusted device (e.g. iPad or Mac) you can get the codes sent to a trusted number which you setup.


Simply click "Didn't receive code" and you'll receive a dropdown of your pre-set alternate voice or SMS numbers which you can then select.


Also, you don't need 2FA to find your phone or activate "lost" mode.


Go to: https://icloud.com/find (be SURE to include the "/find") ...


... and if you're borrowing a friend's Apple device ... be sure to click "Use a different Apple ID" as well.
