Please, somebody, tell me how to stop these relentless pop up notifications about upgrading to two-factor authentication. I’m absolutely sick of this!!!

It's not for your phone, it's for your iCloud account. Should someone gain access 2FA requires having a trusted device in hand. New iCloud accounts have it on by default.

I have never seen a site that requires two factor authorization, and these notifications are driving me nuts. My phone locks every 30 seconds, so I don’t need to make it more secure, it’s not worth the hassle. Thank you for your suggestion though.

some services require the use of 2FA. But, generally, it’s a good idea to make your account more secure.
