How do I update to the iOS 16 official release from the beta (iOS 16 RC)?

I'm running iOS 16.0 beta (20A362) on my iPhone and people I know have received iOS official release, but it's not showing up for me. I went ahead and removed the beta profile following the instructions of the official support page, How to uninstall iOS or iPadOS beta software - Apple Support, but after step 3 it says to install the next available non-beta version. iOS 16 official release is still not showing up for me over two days after it showed up for my friend. Do I just need to wait longer, or wait for iOS 16.1 to come out? I had that thought because I figured maybe the iOS 16 RC is the same as iOS 16 official release, meaning there's no update available to me.

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 16

Use the section of the article entitled “Remove the developer beta by restoring your device.” Otherwise you must wait for iOS 16.1.
