A recovery mode means we are (as users) linked with our device's internal system. Within the mode, we can enjoy several actions one of which is to access our phone's system to further modify or optimize it. However we are limited if using a stock recovery mode, the manufacturers that create our phones have set restrictions we can't cross to perform more activities considered unofficial.
Thanks to custom recoveries, like TWRP the restrictions can be kick out and replaced with bigger freedoms for us to unleash the potential power of our device with rooting, installing custom ROMs, tweak, etc. Thus with that ability in hand, our Samsung Galaxy S6 is superb.
