A custom recovery is a fundamental requirement to approach the world of modding. The TWRP is undoubtedly the most famous and used among the recovery. A small update was released recently, which does not bring any tangible updates but improves smartphone support with Android 11.
Version 3.5.1 of TWRP is under development by the developer team with the previous version of recovery. Now there is a framework that will allow you to install this software even on smartphones that come with Android 11 pre-installed. However, this is not yet officially available, and you need to wait for further updates.
Other noteworthy features are the ability to rename the folders where backups are saved, Magisk APK flash support, bug fixes, stability, and performance improvements.
