Most services offer a ‘recovery code’ incase the MFA device is lost/damaged/stolen.
The only caveat is that the recovery codes are single use and exist such that you can turn off MFA in a settings dashboard, then setup 2FA again. It gives you a temporary window to fix things. Logout accidentally? Tough, you can’t use your recovery code again, unless the service offers multiple codes.
