About the How to downgrade from iOS 15 beta to iOS 14


I am going to tell you about How to downgrade from iOS 15 beta to iOS 14. In this article. Which I have searched and tested a lot for all of us. And now I will tell you about this. So let's see.


So, friends, I wanted to show you How to downgrade from iOS 15 beta to iOS 14, properly using apple's official method. Now there are other ways to do this. However, this is the way that you should do it.


According to apple, that will cause you the least amount of problems in the future. Now there are a couple of things you need to know before you get started is you'll need a Windows computer running,iTunes, the latest version, or a Mac running the latest version of the macOS for your device.


If you have those things, Then you're good to go. But there is one other thing to note is if you are going to downgrade, but you've already updated your watch to watchOS 8 beta one or public beta, for example, or beta two. Depending on what version you're on, you should not be downgrading iOS 15 to iOS 14.


As you'll no longer be able to have the phone and watch pair properly. According to apple, they recommend against restoring your iPhone to a previous version because of this. There's no way to downgrade, watch OS 8 to watch OS 7 without sending it into an apple. So just keep that in mind before we get started. Now, before we get started, I just wanted to make you aware that by downgrading from iOS 15 to iOS 14, you'll completely remove everything. And erase the device.


So make sure that you have a backup because everything will be removed no matter what method you use to downgrade. You will always have to restore from a backup. So make sure you have a backup on iCloud from the previous version iOS 14.6 As long as you have a backup from that version or older, you can restore. So that's just completely normal. You can do that in iTunes as well. Just make sure it's an older version.


Now, as I said, you'll need a computer, but before we do that, let's talk about backups. Because if you installed iOS 15. So make sure you do a backup before you install the beta. And the reason for that is there are ways to restore from iOS 15 backups. But they're not the official method. They can cause problems. And they require editing on a computer of files that are in a sort of obscure places.


Now it's possible. So if you do use your iPhone and use iCloud, though, most of that information is just going to sync. Now that you have things like iCloud and messages. So under settings, tap on your name at the top, tap on iCloud under iCloud. You'll give it just a moment under iCloud. You'll see. So messages in iCloud will just sync across devices.


So that's kind of already done in the background, your bookmarks and different things for safari contacts and iCloud mail. They're already synced in the cloud. You can go to icloud.com to verify that they're there. So this will not affect any of the information on icloud.com or sync to iCloud already.


Now, in order to restore this to a previous version, you need to connect it to our computer. So grab your lightning cable. That's connected to your computer. And go ahead and plug it in. Then you'll go over to the Mac, make sure it's trusted.


That you've already trusted it. If you haven't just tap on trust, put in your passcode. And then click on finder and then your iPhone on the left. If you're in iTunes, click on your phone on the left. And you'll have a similar screen to this. It will show your iPhone, your current version and you'll have a restore button. But you can't do this just yet.


You actually need to put your phone into recovery mode. Now, this is a little bit different depending on the device. So if you have an iPhone six or six S plus an earlier or iPod touch, for example. Then you'll need to put this into recovery mode by holding the sleep-wake button. And home button at the same time while it's plugged into your computer.
