Introduction
While Apple’s iPhone updates usually bring new features and much-needed improvements, they can also cause problems. If you’re experiencing bugs after installing an iPhone update, you can try uninstalling it. In this article, we’ll show you how to uninstall updates on your iPhone.
What are updates?
Updates are released by Apple on a regular basis for the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. These updates usually containbug fixes and introduce new features or improvements to existing ones. In some cases, an update may also lead to increased battery consumption or other unexpected problems.
If you experience any of these issues after installing an update, you may want to uninstall it and downgrade to the previous version of the software. This tutorial will show you how to do this using iTunes on your computer.
Before you begin, make sure that you have a backup of your iPhone data as uninstalling an update will delete any new files that have been created since the update was installed.
Why would you want to uninstall an update?
There are a few reasons you might want to uninstall an iPhone update. Maybe it introduced bugs, or perhaps you’re just not a fan of the new features. Whatever the reason, it’s easy to go back to an older version of iOS. Here’s how.
How to uninstall an update
If you need to uninstall an iPhone update for any reason, perhaps to downgrade to a previous version or because of incompatibility issues, then you can do so easily as long as you have a computer with iTunes installed. Just follow the simple steps below:
1. Connect your iPhone to the computer using its USB cable.
2. Launch iTunes and select your device from the top left corner.
3. Click on the “Summary” tab and then click on the “Check for Updates” button.
4. When prompted, click on the “Restore” button.
5. iTunes will now uninstall the update from your device and restore it to the previous version.
How to prevent automatic updates
It’s generally a good idea to keep your iPhone up-to-date with the latest version of iOS, but sometimes you may want to go back to an older version. Perhaps you’re trying to install an app that requires an older version of iOS, or maybe you’re having problems with the latest update and want to go back to a stable version. Whatever the reason, Apple makes it relatively easy to uninstall updates from your iPhone.
Conclusion
There are a few different ways to uninstall updates on your iPhone. The most common way is to delete the update from your device’s storage. You can also delete the update from your device’s Settings app, or by using your computer to manage your phone’s updates.
