Since roughly 2012-2013 Team Win’s custom recovery image they named ‘TWRP’ for the Team Win Recovery Project has risen to be the world’s most popular custom recovery image to install on any Android device. We are also lead to believe that TWRP contributed to the demise of ClockworkMod Recovery — the original custom recovery for Android devices — due to Koushik Dutta somewhat throwing in the towel on a better idea. There is also no denying that Team Win’s recovery developed a colossal group of fans based right around the world, and it was taking away CWM Recovery users by the day, so the statistics alone might have been enough for Koushik Dutta to go on. Koushik is also a busy guy who continually goes on to make bigger and better things, so there’s also the chance he’s busy doing other things and not caring all that much about his custom recovery that was the pioneer and best recovery in its time.
