Hi Abimbola1245,
If you were designated as an account recovery contact for someone else, Set up an account recovery contact outlines several key pieces of information for that process:
"What does your recovery contact need?
Your contacts will need an iOS device with iOS 15 or iPadOS 15 or later, or Mac with macOS Monterey or later, and must meet the minimum requirements. Your recovery contacts won't have any access to your account, only the ability to give you a code if you need one."
and
5. "If you select a family member, they're added automatically. If you select a contact, they need to accept the request. You also send them a message to let them know that you'd like to add them as your recovery contact.
6. After they accept your request, you see a message that they have been added as your account recovery contact.
If your friend or family member declines or removes themself as your recovery contact, you see a notification and need to select a new account recovery contact."
Once accepted, you can use the steps from Help a friend or family member as their account recovery contact to assist the requestor with a code to regain access to their account if needed.
Regards.
