I’m trying to switch my two way factor authentication phone number
I see you want to change a trusted number to a different one.
This is based on the section "About trusted phone numbers and trusted devices" in the article: Two-factor authentication for Apple ID - Apple Support
To see, add, or change your trusted phone numbers use one of these methods:
● On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Go to Settings > your name > Password & Security. Next to Trusted Phone Number, tap Edit.
● On a Mac computer choose Apple menu > System Settings (or System Preferences), then click your name (or Apple ID). Click Password & Security, then add or remove a trusted phone number.
● Using a web browser:
1) Go to https://appleid.apple.com and sign in.
2) Follow security options until you find one letting you change trusted numbers,
3) Click "+" to add a new number (you may be required to verify this number).
4) If you wish to remove an old number, click "-" next to the number.
