Did you back up your phone with your google account? If yes, you can try by logging in via gmail, go to sign in & security, next look for signing into google and click 2-step verification(Change Phone).
For new phone: you can check your back up account in your settings to verify if you have click the auto back up my data.

Also, going forward, if you have access to a printer, you can make a print out of the QR code with your key for 2fa. You can also write down the key with pen and paper. Just keep the piece of paper in a safe place to avoid theft.


Even easier, make a screenshot before scanning it with your phone. Copy into paint and print it out Smiley

I am also to use Authy now. It is because, yes it is hard to pretend that your phone will not be lost. That is why I am migrating all my accounts to Authy.

You need to inform the customer service of the website (exchanges/Blockchain.info etc), they will ask you to follow necessary steps to unlock your 2FA. Hope it helps. Next time use Authy desktop version. You can keep backup in the cloud.
