My advice is only actionable for others, not OP.

You should have backups on places other than the phone.

I warmly recommend andOTP for managing your TOTPs. It's open source and available on F-Droid.

Even better would be Aegis which does backups for you, and (at least in my opinion) has the best UI for an aithenticator app. Also available on FDroid.
