Apple recently released iOS 16.0.2, and as is traditional, Apple has now stopped signing the previous versions, iOS 16 and iOS 16.0.1, making downgrading to those versions of iOS no longer possible.
Apple earlier this month released iOS 16.0.2. According to Apple’s release notes:
– This update provides bug fixes and important security updates for your iPhone including the following:
– Camera may vibrate and cause blurry photos when shooting with some third-party apps on iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max
– Display may appear completely black during device setup
– Copy and paste between apps may cause a permission prompt to appear more than expected
– VoiceOver may be unavailable after rebooting
– Addresses an issue where touch input was unresponsive on some iPhone X, iPhone XR, and iPhone 11 displays after being serviced
The new software can be downloaded on compatible devices over the air by going to “Settings” -> “General” -> “Software Update.”
Falling back to an older iOS build is often used by users that jailbreak their iPhones. Restoring an iPhone or iPad to a previous version of iOS can also sometimes be helpful for users who experience significant bugs after upgrading to the latest version of iOS.
