I have this old iphone that i want to give to my nephew. I'm trying to erase everything on it, but it keeps saying something about a verification code. It's not letting me sign in to erase the phone.

I'm trying to erase all the content out of the iPhone 8, so I can give it to my nephew. It just keeps saying verification code. The code is popping up, but I can't manage this device because I deleted it from my apple id. It just keeps popping out the verification code.

If the code is popping up, can you use the code when you try to sign in?
