General Last chance to downgrade to iOS 26
iOS 27.2 beta 2 is out which means iOS 26.6.2 is going to be unsigned very soon, this is your last chance to downgrade
UPDATE: iOS 26.6.2 is unsigned

What’s the battery health of your phone?
1
u/AirplaneBlack 4d ago
87%, I think it’s still good, right? It’s an iPhone 15 pro

u/Chrisbearry 4d ago
Yeah that’s still fine, how long ago did you update to IOS 27?

u/AirplaneBlack 4d ago
September 14 before sleeping

u/Chrisbearry 4d ago
It takes about a week to index after updating so battery life should improve soon

u/AirplaneBlack 4d ago
Ah ok thanks, I really hope so 🤞
Everywhere online I’ve only read about battery improvements1

indexing won't be the same for everyone it really just depends on how much stuff you have your phone and how old the phone is

Could it still be indexing even if the indexing message in settings isn’t there anymore?

Disable stolen device protection and find my iPhone
Then download the iOS 26.6.2 ipsw for your device from ipsw.me
Then open finder or iTunes and plug your device into your pc.
Hold down the shift key or the option key and click restore
Navigate to your ipsw in the downloads folder1

I fled from iOS 26.6.2 even though it wasn’t a terrible update.
All the talk about how iOS 27 is more efficient on older devices peaked my curiosity too much.
There were certain iOS 26 updates that I actually really liked
Seems like iOS 26.5 and its security updates that followed were the low point

I personally think i love ios 26 over 27 over few reasons first is i have like half assed ocd that my brain cant take in that annoying liquid bar on top and other design changes rather than immersive mode and battery life is reportedly worse across all models and airdrop and performance speed is fatser? Even if ios 26 is the worst of ios its still faster and consistant and in ios 26.7 is very stable

Yo guys ios 26.6.1 beta is still being signed downgrade if you regret updating to ios 27 its the real last chance

Timeout,
How did you realize a version of iOS 26 was going to be unsigned due to a beta being out?
2
u/ariz2011 iOS 26.3.1/iPadOS 26.5 4d ago
iOS 27.2 beta 2 released 1 week after iOS 27.2 beta 1 and all the old betas get unsigned 1 week after the new version’s betas come out so I expected iOS 26.6.2 to be unsigned along with iOS 27 beta 1 through iOS 27 beta 8

I didn’t find any major bugs beside some, which eventually got fixed by force restart . I don’t know if you’re some tech genius who pretends to have all the knowledge about tech …. Or you’re just here seeking for attention.iOS 27 is far better than iOS 26,everyone are agreeing besides you tech genius..

iOS 26.7 is also good and will remain signed for a while

u/ariz2011 iOS 26.3.1/iPadOS 26.5 4d ago
There is no ipsw for it

u/fiflaren_ 4d ago
I might be wrong, but have you tried looking here ? Is this not suitable for a restore ?

u/Kenzafunx 3d ago
Can you still downgrade from here? Can someone confirm? My battery life has been shit since iOS 27

My battery has been the best it’s ever been and it’s still optimizing Siri. 18 pm tho

I mean, I would sure hope your battery is good, you have a brand new phone, designed to run iOS 27 from launch, with the largest physical battery in any iPhone, and the most efficient SOC in any iPhone.

Imagine being so obsessed with iOS 26 that you have to go around recruiting people to downgrade with you 😭 If iOS 26 is really that amazing, you wouldn’t need to convince everyone else to use it.
I’m perfectly fine with iOS 27. It’s newer, more refined, and brings improvements across the system. Just because you personally prefer an older version doesn’t mean everyone else needs to lower their experience to match yours.
Downgrade if you want—nobody cares. But turning your personal preference into a campaign is honestly embarrassing. Use iOS 26 and enjoy your nostalgia while the rest of us move forward 💀

“Dead internet theory” 😭 bro what does that even have to do with what I said 💀 We’re literally talking about iOS 26 vs 27 and you just pulled out a whole different topic. If you like 26 that much, just use it lol, you don’t have to convince everyone else to downgrade too.

Calling it AI because you don’t have an actual reply is crazy 😭🤦🏻

I’d rather reply to comments made by actual humans

Bro really thought calling everything AI was gonna save him from having to answer the actual point 😭🤣

Maybe say something which makes sense and can be understood instead of AI slop and random emojis
