Recovery key notifications

I am getting a constant nagging notification asking to set up a recovery key, i neither want a recovery key or will ever use a recovery key

I have no intention of ever using one, now i am getting the same notifications on my Mac

Apple may think they know best but they really do not, i do not want a recovery key EVER

How can i stop the Iphone and Mac from making me aware of this, if it is going to be Mandatory then i will instantly sell on my Apple products

It almost feels like spam at this point

How can i stop these notifications >?

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 16

Hello SwansSatch,

Using a recovery key is not required as explained in this article: How to generate a recovery key - Apple Support

To help resolve this issue, make sure your iPhone and Mac have the latest update. Apple's updates contain software that is crucial to the operation of your devices:

If your devices are already updated, restart them. Restarting can help refresh your settings and resolve issues like the one you're having.

3. Restart your iPhone - Apple Support

4. Shut down or restart your Mac - Apple Support

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities, and have a great day!
