iOS 13 Beta To iOS 12 – How To Roll Back

The first beta of iOS 13 is out for developers, but it’s not that flawless as you would expect.

There are definitely some really cool new features for beta testers to try out if they install the iOS 13 on the spot, but the OS is not complete yet, and Apple still has a few more months of testing before the iOS 13 will be ready for public release.

Anyway, if you hopped on the wagon being enthusiast about the beta version and now you’re having second thoughts, don’t freak out because you can roll back to the stable iOS 12 until the public beta comes out next week. This will be more stable than the current developer version.

Download the necessary system files 

Lifehacker teaches users how to roll back. First of all, you have to find and download the device’s .IPSW file and save it for iOS 12.3, 12.3.1, or 12.3.2 to your computer.

Then, you have to configure the iOS device. Disable the “Find my iPhone/iPad” option in the iOS 13.

Then, you have to open Settings and tap your account name at the top of the Settings window.

Go to “Find My”>”Find My iPhone/iPad,” and tap the “Find My iPhone/iPad” slider to disable it. Then, type in your Apple ID and password to apply the changes.

Installing older versions of iOS

The rollback involves a few steps:

According to Lifehacker, “If you backed up your phone when you were running iOS 12, and you want to restore your data, tap “Restore from iCloud” or “Restore from iTunes Backup.” If not, tap “Set Up as New iPhone.”

Follow all the instructions. That’s it – your device should be back on iOS 12.
