How to downgrade from iOS 17 beta back to iOS 16

iOS 17 logo on iPhone

If you want to know how to downgrade from iOS 17 beta back to iOS 16, then don't worry: it's totally possible to do so. But why would you want to downgrade your iPhone in such a way given that iOS 17 is a leap forward from the operating system you're currently using? 

Well, there are quite a few reasons, chief among them being that a beta is not a stable version, so there's no guarantee that all of your apps will be running properly. There's also a chance that you may have installed the iOS 17 beta out of sheer curiosity and now you want to slip back into the normal updates issued to the public until iOS 17 gets its full release — at which point knowing how to update an iPhone is going to prove essential.
