How can I downgrade from iOS 26 on my iPhone 13?

Update iOS to older version

You are seeking to exit the iOS 26 beta, and to revert to iOS 18.6.2.

There is no downgrade.

The three usual choices are to reset and restore your backup from iOS 18 (some data loss), or to reset and revert to iOS 18 without a backup (more data loss), or to continue with the iOS 26 beta until iOS 26 is released.

Here is: How to uninstall iOS or iPadOS beta software - Apple Support

Given the timing, staying on the iOS 26 beta is going to be less work, and less likely to lose local data.

Reverting will lose local data, and the longer the beta has been in use, the larger the local data loss will be.

Apple has an “awe dropping” event on September 9th; Tuesday.

If you have participated in the beta program, then you should have read and understood the terms before participating as published:▷ Frequently Asked Questions.

Good luck! 👋🏼😉

I guess it is somewhere between Awe Inspiring and Jaw Dropping?

And that presumably not intended to be interpreted literally. But we’ll find out more soonest. 🤔

And if running the iOS 26 beta right now, I’d stay there.
