I’m trying to file for 2023 not 2024
Then you have to buy the Desktop program. Did you already start it online? How to finish a prior year online return
Sorry it's too,late to start a 2023 or prior online return or use the mobile app, either on Turbo Tax or the IRS. And too late to efile 2023.
If you need to start 2023 or prior you can buy the Desktop download here,

You will need a full Windows or Mac to install it on.
If you have a simple return and want to file for free you can fill out the forms by hand. Here are some basic forms.....

Don’t forget your state. And you will have to print and mail your returns. So be sure to attach copies of your W2s and any 1099s that have withholding on them. You have to mail federal and state in separate envelopes because they go to different places. Get a tracking number from the post office when you mail them for proof of filing.
Then when you file for 2024 you need to enter 0 for the 2023 AGI since you are filing 2023 late.
