    the prompts (see above).

The contact you designate will not

have access to your
iCloud account at any
time. When you are
locked out of your own
devices and begin the
password recovery
procedure, you can
choose one of your
designated Recovery
Contacts to get a short
code that they will
have to tell you, and you’ll enter it
into your own device to prove you
own it, after which you’ll be prompted
to change the password.
