Even though it is not recommended by Apple, there is a way to go back from iOS 16 to iOS 15 if you decide that you’re not ready to run the latest beta at this time. I do recommend making a backup of any important data, such as documents or photos.
Here’s what to do:
- Open Finder on the Mac
- Connect the iPad to the Mac with a Lightning cable
- Put the iPad Pro into Recovery Mode by performing the following sequence: press and release the Volume Up button, press and release the Volume Down button, then press and hold the Power/Lock button until the iPad enters recovery mode
- A dialog box will appear on the Mac screen informing you a device has been detected that needs to be updated or restored, giving you the option to cancel, update, or restore – choose “Restore” to begin the process of downgrading from iPadOS 16 to iPadOS 15
- Once the restore has started, let the process complete, it may take a while
