Disabling two-step verification

If you no longer want to use two-step verification, you can disable it, as described in this section.

Disabling two-step verification will decrease the security of your account. We strongly recommend that you continue using two-step verification.

If you set up two-step verification by SMS, you can disable two-step verification. If you set up two-step verification by an authenticator app, you can disable the use of the app or completely disable two-step verification.
