On the main screen of the application, click on the 'Select Device' drop-down list, and select your phone model.

After downloading the image file, go to the main screen of the Official TWRP App and press the 'Select a file to flash' button. Then we tell the program the path where the file loaded in the previous step is located.

After adding the image file to the program, click the 'FLASH TO RECOVERY' button and confirm your choice, click 'OK'.

The recording process is very fast, and upon completion, the message 'Flash Completed Succsessfuly!' appears. Click 'OK'. The TWRP installation procedure can be considered complete.

Insert a memory card into the phone.

To reboot into recovery, you need to use a special item in the Official TWRP App menu, accessible by pressing the button with three stripes in the upper left corner of the main screen of the application. Open the menu and select the 'Reboot' item, and then click on the 'REBOOT RECOVERY' button.
