Doing it wrong and losing access.
Can you fallback to email pin if you lose your steam authenticator?
Yes, you can reset to email in case you break your phone or something. It's one of the account recovery options.
Some logins now require an interactive prompt in the app instead of a TOTP code though. I see them when my IP address changes due to VPN endpoints lately.
