How do you recover your account if you don't have the app?
I mean sending a code VIA SMS. I mean I deleted the phone number from my Google account. Now I have only Auth App, & Google App. The code & recovery options are 8 digit recovery phrase, Tap in Google App on other device. No reset code SMS.
You can have a backup of the private key written on a piece of paper.
