Hey everyone.
I knew that many of you guys are already installed the iOS 16 beta version, is not quite good
to use, right?
Don’t worry, I will show you how to downgrade it to iOS 15.5 in 3 methods.
Let’s go.
Method One: Downgrade with iTunes
Connect your iPhone to iTunes, and go to [ipsw](http://ipsw.com).me, choose your iPhone model here, and then you
can see iOS 15.5 files here, click it and download it.
Once the download is complete, go back to iTunes, we need to back up first, so that
you can get back your data after the downgrade.
In the backup section, select this computer option and click backup now.
Once the backup is done, then go to the iTunes backup folder, press Win key and R key, and
type %userprofile%
Click Apple folder, Mobilesync, Backup, and click your backup folder.
Scroll to the bottom and find a file named info.plist.
Open it and press Ctrl key and F key, and type “product” to search for the word.
Below the word “product version”, you can see 16.0 here.
Change it to 15.5 so that it could match the iOS 15.5 system and then save it.
If you had logged in Apple ID, Before we start downgrade, make sure your iPhone is turned
off Find My, make sure it won’t cause any problem.
Then go back to iTunes and hold the Shift key and click the Restore iPhone option.
Select the file we just download from [ipsw.me](http://ipsw.me) and click ok.
Then iTunes will tell you it will erase and restore your iPhone, click restore here because
we just made a backup.
Then the downgrade will begin, the process will take some time, all you need to do is
be patient.
Once the process is done, you can see your iPhone on the hello screen, let’s quickly
set it up.
When it comes to the App and Data page, click restore from Mac or Pc option.
Now you can see the backup selection in iTunes.
Choose restore from this backup option, and choose the backup file we just created.
Hit continue.
Once the process is done, your iPhone data will be back.
Now you see my iPhone is in iOS 15.5 and none of my data is lost.
For Mac users, you can follow the next method.
Method Two: Downgrade with Finder
It’s basically the same as downgrading with iTunes, first go to [ipsw.me](http://ipsw.me)
and download the downgrade file.
Connect your iPhone to your Mac and launch Finder.
Again, we need to make a backup first.
Click Back up now, and wait for the backup process is done.
Then click the manage backups option, right-click the backup file, and choose show in finder.
Open it and locate a file named info.plist.
Open the file, press Command key and F key and search for the word “product” and
modify 16.0 to 15.5, so that we could match it to iOS 15.5 system.
Save it and go back to Finder, hold the Option key and click restore iPhone option, select
the file we just downloaded from ipsw.me
Then the downgrade will begin, wait for it.
Then you will see the hello screen on your iPhone as I do, let’s quickly set it up.
When it comes to the App and Data page, choose Restore from Mac or Pc option.
Go back to Finder, choose restore from this backup option, select the backup we just created
and hit continue.
Wait for the process over and your data will be back on your iPhone.
If iTunes or Finder is not a good choice for you guys, or you don’t want to download
firmware from a website, I recommend you Tenorshare ReiBoot, it’s available on both macOS and
Windows, and it’s very convenient to use, all can be done in this software.
Check the download link in the description and download it.
Once installed, connect your iPhone to ReiBoot.
ReiBoot will automatically detect your iPhone version, click the green start button.
Choose Deep Repair to downgrade your iPhone, here will need download iOS15.5 file, so click
it.
The download won’t be long.
Once the download is finished, click start deep repair, don’t worry about your data,
we just made a backup, we can get it back later.
ReiBoot will start to downgrade your iPhone to iOS 15.5, it won’t be long, be patient.
Then it is done, you can see the hello screen as I do, skip it to the App and Data page,
choose Restore from Mac or Pc option, then go back to iTunes select restore from this
backup option and choose the backup we just created then hit continue.
Then your data will be on your iPhone, what an easy way.
Go try it!
