Aegis but it just works on Android. If possible use a 2FA app that is open source and doesnt't have internet connection.

I use vaultwarden/bitwarden
I've never understood the point of having your 2fa and your passwords in the exact same place. Doesn't that defeat the purpose?
It kind of does. But, the vault itself is protected with 2fa and that code i have backed up on a simple piece of paper (printed out the qr code) in my safe. You are not wrong though. Something to think about!
Woah, I have a selfhosten vaultwarden instance and never knew it could do this! Thanks, kind internet person!
I use a keepass database with KeePassium (strongbox looks great too).
I keep the database in the cloud but it’s unlocked by a local keyfile on each device. So if it’s compromised they would need the keyfile.
KeePassium keeps a local copy and backups if you lose connection.
This!

2FAS or a KeePass vault kept in sync on both, which can store TOTP private keys and display them when needed.
I use KeePassXC and you can sync it with Syncthing. On iOS there are alternatives which a compatible with Syncthing and the KeePassXC database, it works very cool once you figure out how to do it and you also got all your passports synced too with it.
keepassxc for desktop and for Android: FreeOTP+ (the plus is important)
I use 1Password for mine.
