Hello!
I have updated to IOS 18 beta. I am wondering is there a way for me to update to the official version of IOS 18?

Turn off the beta switch, then go back into the main update screen. I don't remember if this'll require you to download the official ios 18 version but, if it does just press update and wait until it downloads the os and installs it and you'll be good to go.

Hi, Yes, you can restore to official iOS version.
In order to do it you need to sync your device with iTunes, and to rich to "Recovery mode".
It depends on your device.
You need to connect your device to your computer, and you need to press on "Volume Up" and "Power button" for 1 minute.
Choose in "Update and restore" to go back to iOS 18.

You can, but it does require restoring your device. If you turn off the beta option you'll be updated to the next full release of IOS 18, most likely, IOS 18.0.2 now. If you are on IOS 18.1, like I am, turning it off before the official release next month should, I think, mean it replaces the beta. Basically, a more recent version of the standard is the only way it can trump the existing install.
