How do I turn off iPhone 2 step verification?

If you have an iPhone 12, you shouldn't have 2 step verification, you should have two factor authentication. If you have 2 step verification, you should be able to turn that off. Two factor authentication cannot be turned off. See the explanation of both here, Two-step verification for Apple ID - Apple Support

*If you're already using two-factor authentication with your Apple ID, you can't turn it off. If you updated to two-factor authentication inadvertently, you can turn it off within two weeks of enrollment. If you do, your account is less secure and you can't use features that require a higher level of security.

so I am curious about some thing. So let’s say you have an iPhone and a MacBook or iPad to use with the two factor authentication but then you decide to sell the MacBook and or iPad or they break or stop working then what happens? Say you just have your iPhone or just one device. How does 2FA work in that situation if you no longer have access to your other devices in that scenario?

Thanks.

You need to look for the email that confirms your enrollment. Check your spam folder as well.

You don't.

Once you start, you cannot stop.

You can, and should, set up at the very least, an alternate phone number to receive the 2FA codes. A friend or family member, or a google voice number or similar.

I just turned mine on by accident when I got my new phone yesterday it says within two weeks of enrollment. How do I turn it off via enrollment? I would appreciate your help.
