Therefore, will make you a tutorial on how to perform the downgrade from iOS 10.3 10.2 new iOS Beta, the easiest and fastest way. And is that sometimes the beta of a system operating iOS doesn’t behave all the that it should, consumes too much battery or there are certain essential applications that are not fully compatible. So, don’t miss our tutorial to downgrade.
Prior considerations
First of all let’s remember that the backup copies of a version of iOS will not be compatible with a lower version. Of this mode, you are going to recommend as whenever do a copy of security, but is important that it do in a PC or Mac through iTunes, so it can have to good shelter and not have problems of space in iCloud by fault of a copy of security that it more likely is that not you go to serve of nothing.
If you are a user of WhatsApp, it is also important that you make a backup of chats, so we’ll launch WhatsApp and click on the “Settings” icon, in the bottom over to the right of the screen. In “Configuration” we will go to “Chat support” and inside we have the options to store our WhastApp talks, even videos if we so wish. Then entering our phone number on WhatsApp will allow us restore this content.
What we have prepared?
We will need the following items before you get down to the work, it is important that we make have everything, to not lose the thread or leave anything half.
- Lightning – USB cable
- The device to which we want to downgrade
- The file. IPSW with the version of iOS 10.2 that is the one we want to install
- A PC/Mac with iTunes installed and updated
In this way, we’re going to go to this link to be able to download the latest signed IOS 10.2, we do not know exactly how long it will last. If you don’t know what your model and what is the version of iOS that you have to download, we recommend that you walk you through this link.
Tutorial for downgrade
Well, since we already have everything downloaded, and the. IPSW for iOS 10.2 (which is still signed) stored on your PC/Mac, let’s connect via USB-Lightning device iOS in question, whether it’s iPad or iPhone, and it is that this formula serves equally to both devices.
We then start iTunes and wait for it to detect the iOS device. Once detected, we will do the same thing if we would like to restore it, that is, press the button of “restore device“, but this time we will have to press it while keeping down the “Alt” key on the keyboard of the Mac, or the key “Shift” in the case of PCs running Windows.
Opens a file Explorer, then here we are going to select the file. ISPW that we have downloaded to 10.2 and fully compatible with our device iOS iOS. Then will begin to restore the device normally, only that this time we will be able to use iOS 10.2

What risks are involved in this type of mechanisms?
Involves the same problem always, and is that although not want to believe it, with each update, Apple introduces new security measures that allow us to keep good I raised our privacy, and thus ensure that no type of malware will affect our data. That is precisely what iOS 10.2.1 more than anything else, includes security patches that you will lose to the downgrade.
