You can access you bitcoin where ever you are as long as you have your key. Just save your key to a place that no one will know but only you, your wallet is not depends on your phone it's about the key you have.
As other says if you have your private keys or seed for the phone wallet (i.e jaxx) you can restore it everywhere.
The most important thing which you need to have with you is not your cell phone but the private key. If you lost your phone but you remember your private key, then there are chances that you will recover your bitcoins. Otherwise, there is no possible way using which you can actually recover your bitcoins. In that case all your bitcoins will be lost which will result in huge loss.
You just open from another phone using your key passphrase and if you want to know in detail better you are passing through a guide or tutorial that you can search in google, I think at this time there is a lot of a site link that contains about how to guide how to reset a bitcoin account from a lost phone, and apart from that I strongly suggest to you that this can be a lesson for you so you do not do negligence for the second time because for someone who wrestle in crypto world of course the phone is as one of the tools for you to do a job. even you will of course save a very important asset in it if your phone is lost of course you will get a loss.

For the record, always back up your date and private keys.
Your bitcoins are stored in your wallet, not in your mobile phone so if just access your wallet on a different phone or computer, you will still be able to see it. So no worries.

Unless you backed up your bitcoin private key elsewhere, you can not find your bitcoin back. The private key corresponds to your bitcoin, lost nothing, it is impossible to recover.
If your address on the mobile wallet was password protected and you have the pass phrase, nothing to worry about. But if it was not protected, I would not wai much to transfer your bitcoins to some other address, for the unlikely case that the thief or whoever has got your phones understands what bitcoins are.
you can connect with ur site or wallet support with ur email address then they can disable 2 factor and you can enable 2 factor in other device.
One should always keep a copy of their private key in some other phone or should write it somewhere because if you lost your phone or your phone is not working then it will be impossible for you to access that wallet.If the private key of a wallet is known then it can be opened from any other phone also because only the key matters not the phone but if the key is lost then it is not possible for us to recover our money .Our all hard work and money will be wasted .
