The problem is logging into your Google account without your 2FA device or phone number. The answer in all these cases is having more than one option enabled.

The problem is logging into your Google account without your 2FA device or phone number.
The answer in all these cases is having more than one option enabled. I just recently tested my Google and Apple login simulating a loss of phone and computer. It was tough but there are options (e.g. Apple lets a friend be your full 2FA, so you can even recover encrypted data)
