Is it possible to deactivate the Apple ID 2 factors authentication

Hello folks,


How can I deactivate in my iPhone 6S the Apple ID 2 factors authentication?

Just like I have with my iMac and another iPhone, I want to use only my Apple ID and password


Thanks Paulo

Are the 2 phones and the Mac using the same Apple ID? Log in using the link below and then go to the Security section to turn off 2 Factor Authentication.


Apple ID - Manage


There are some exceptions.


Can I turn off two-factor authentication after I’ve turned it on?

You can't turn off two-factor authentication for some accounts created in iOS 10.3 or macOS Sierra 10.12.4 and later. If you created your Apple ID in an earlier version of iOS or macOS, you can turn off two-factor authentication.
