I deleted the phone number from google account, just use 2FA from app. Now forgot password does not give extreme option of just sending a code to my phone.



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.
