There are some Google Authenticator replacements that have an export function (eg. Authenticator+ on Android, although I'm not sure if it's still maintained). You give up a bit of [theoretical] security for a whole lot of DR insurance.

Google Authenticator now has an "Export QR code" function that allows exporting the 2FA secrets.

FYI the authenticator app itself has this now.
