The evergreen TeamWin Recovery Project received a sizable update to 3.5 back in December. Late last night they posted 3.5.1, which they're calling a "mini release," waiting for full support for Android 11. Most of the changes are housekeeping and small support additions, now split into two branches for Android 9 and 10.

The new changes, supplied by tireless volunteer developers, are shown in the full changelog:

All devices officially supported by TWRP should have updated builds of the recovery posted now, ready to flash. The TWRP app on the Play Store (or on APK Mirror) is the easiest way to grab an update. If you rely on unofficial ports of  the open source project, you'll have to wait for their individual maintainers to release an updated build.
