See the following from Two-step verification for Apple ID - Apple Support

How do I turn off two-step verification?

  1. Sign in to your Apple ID account page.
  2. In the Security section, Click Edit.
  3. Click Turn Off two-step verification.
  4. Create new security questions and verify your date of birth.

You'll get an email confirming that two-step verification for your Apple ID is off.

I've never turned on two-factor authentication and it shows as "turned off" on all my devices as well as the apple id account page. Despite this I get numerous notifications per day to finish turning on two-factor authentication. It is VERY VERY ANNOYING and nothing I've tried in Apple Forums will turn this stupid message off. Is this a sign it's time to switch to Android?
