verification code is not being sent to iwatch. no way of getting into new phone
I have the iphone 14 pro max, it was acting wonky so verizon sent a new one. got into new phone no problem but my storage is full. I was deleting a ton of pics when I saw that my text messages had pictures in them too, but I accidently deleted all my texts (which were very important) and I was told by apple support to go in and erase my phone and go back to my sept backup. However, I can't get the id verification code. I only have this iphone and an Iwatch and the verification code isn't being sent to the iwatch and its not being sent to the phone. I would like it sent to my email or is there a way to override the verification code?
