PinePhone has most of those, but if you're insisted on a specific app/brand, you are limiting yourself. For instance, Mobian comes with a 2FA app. Authy is a bad security choice anyways because you shouldn't send your 2FA tokens to a cloud.

Curious what your solution is for non-cloud backed up 2FA tokens. Phones break, get lost, and get stolen, so backups have to be done somehow.

Those QR codes are much safer on paper, secured well, than any digital medium that can be hacked.
The cloud is a dumb place to store secrets, as anyone on the planet can attack your secret storage. Almost any offline medium (including a Post-It stuck to your monitor on your desk!) is inherently safer.
