How Do I Set a One-Time Password for iCloud?

Published in Security 1 min read

You can't set a one-time password for iCloud. iCloud uses two-factor authentication, which means you'll need to enter a six-digit code sent to your trusted device in addition to your Apple ID password when signing in.

Here's how two-factor authentication works:

  1. Sign in to iCloud: Enter your Apple ID and password.
  2. Verification Code: You'll be prompted to enter a six-digit code. This code will be sent to your trusted device, either your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
  3. Enter the Code: Enter the code you received on your trusted device.
  4. Access Granted: Once you enter the correct code, you'll be granted access to iCloud.

Two-factor authentication helps protect your iCloud account from unauthorized access.
