Yes that was an old article but I couldn't find anything more recent,I don't use these verification codes myself so I don't know that much about them.
This was the latest information I could find and it doesn't mention an apple watch;
Get a verification code and sign in with two-factor authentication
Verification codes for what?.
Oh sorry. The code that appears when you access your account. In the past I would get the codes on all trusted devices (iPhone,iPad, Macs and Apple Watches) now I no longer get the verification codes on my trusted watches I do get them in my other trusted devices.
Actually I just read the Apple support document on 2 factor authentication and it does state that Apple Watches on WatchOS 6 or above should recieve the codes and my Series3, Series 4 and 7 (all on the latest release version of WatchOS 8.6 are not getting the codes?
hmmm...
My watches started to receive the codes again. not sure why???
yes this is.
Did you read the page I linked to?;
Quote from that page;
Apple Watch cannot be used as a trusted device for two-factor authentication.
Oh, I thought that was an old article. thank you for the response. this must be a new as it did work in the past?
I'm guessing it's a software glitch in WatchOS 8.6. I will hope for a fix.....:)
