Settings -> General -> Software Update -> Beta Updates. Toggle to "off".

Phil, Apple stopped using beta profiles as of iOS 16.4. The step I posted above is all anyone on newer releases of iOS needs to do unless they're actually in the developer beta program or AppleSeed and they want to completely leave the beta program so they no longer receive emails announcing updates.

Turning it off, does not remove the Beta option from the Software Update screen, it merely stops beta updates from showing up when they are available.


Yes, you are correct, the profiles were used with 16.3 and earlier betas.


Still, the OP will continue to see the Beta option even after turning it off. Or at least I continue to see the switch there even though I haven't used a beta con my iPhone ever and its set to off.
