How to Downgrade iOS 10.3 to iOS 10.2.1 on iPhone or iPad
Apple has just released iOS 10.3 for iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch and it comes with many new features including an all new Find My AirPods feature that allows you to find the location of your missing AirPods. The new software also includes expanded SiriKit support, which makes it easier to pay bills, schedule a ride-hailing service, and even check on the status of a pending payment.
You can update to iOS 10.3 over-the-air by going to Settings -> General -> Software Update. If you’ve already updated to iOS 10.3 and have been facing issues with the latest firmware, then it is still possible to downgrade back to iOS 10.2.1.
Users who wish to jailbreak should remain on iOS 10.2.1 as it may contain exploits that may be used in a future jailbreak tool for this firmware. Therefore, if you have upgrade to iOS 10.3 and wish to jailbreak, we recommend that you downgrade back to iOS 10.2.1 to increase your chances of jailbreaking.
In today’s tutorial, we will show you how to downgrade iOS 10.3 to iOS 10.2.1 using iTunes. Keep in mind that the downgrade is only possible if Apple is still signing iOS 10.2.1. As of this writing, iOS 10.2.1 is still being signed. You can check the signing status from here.
