Way 4: Reset iCloud Password via Two-Factor Authentication

Two-factor authentication is another way that adds an extra layer of security in your Apple ID. It ensures that it鈥檚 you only, whenever your ID is being login on any device. When you鈥檙e using this option, it ensures that your account is only accessed on trusted devices or web. While logging in to a new device, you'll have to enter two authentication factors: your password and six-digit verification code that is automatically sent to all your trusted devices. You should not confuse verification code with a password, because both of these are different.

Once you add the code and password, you're qualified to log in to this new device. In such instances, your password is not enough for verification. Hence, we have this option for a more substantial security purpose that keeps your account safe and secure.

Once you have signed in a new device, there won't be any more quests about verification codes because now Apple has it in its data. You'll only need more verification if you sign out of this device entirely by removing all the caches and previous data.

If you don't remember your password, you can use this two-factor authentication to sign in to your account and reset the iCloud password.
