How To Downgrade iOS 18 to iOS 17 Without Losing Any Data

Always backup your device before upgrading to iOS 18. This will allow you to easily restore your device to its previous state (iOS 17) if necessary. Backups created after upgrading to iOS 18 won't work for restoring to iOS 17.

[@bryanmartin5901]

Well, too late. I factory reset my iPhone 15 Pro after downloading to iOS 18, used a restore from Sept. 10 (that clearly was 17.6.1) and it just cheerfully did all that somehow on iOS 18. A complete waste of erasing all my data. And I’m stuck on the horrendous, unusable iOS 18.

@@SIT3737 I updated shortly after watching Aaron's video. I'm still running the public beta, and it is definitely usable. However, it is also definitely glitchy. I have not noticed a major problem with the battery life or the device heating up. However, control panel keeps losing icons that I add to it. Mail app seems to randomly stop fetching new emails-works for a while and then it doesn't. A few other glitches like that that I've reported to Apple. However, it has some good features that are exciting to use like the new calendar reminders integration, and the changes to the Notes app are especially useful. Once they get the control panel and mail app fixed. It's going to be great 🙂
