Original Title: Verification code

If tapping Allow doesn’t show the six-digit code, you can have Apple send one to your trusted phone number instead.


On the other iPhone, tap Didn’t get a code? on the verification screen, then choose to receive the code by text message or phone call.

If that works, you can finish signing in without relying on the pop-up code. If no text or call arrives either, I’d check that the trusted phone number on your Apple Account is still correct.
