So, right after WWDC25, I got super excited and slapped the iOS 26 beta on my iPhone to try it out. but I’m paranoid about losing my photos, chats, and stuff.
Anyone out there who’s successfully downgraded from iOS 26 beta to iOS 18? Ideally keeping all data safe? Plz share a simple step-by-step, would be a lifesaver! 🙌

Apple's instructions are in the link below, but unfortunately you are going to lose all of the data on your Phone when you revert to iOS 18.....unless....you made a separate "archive" backup on a Mac or PC.....before.....you installed the beta software.
