Aug 6, 2016 8:41 AM in response to Ok_sylviaby irina_w,Hello there, Ok_sylvia,
Thanks for stopping by the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you are wanting to go back to the current iOS version from the iOS 10 beta. I'll be more than happy to help you out.
Take a look at this support article:
You'll want to follow the steps listed in this section specifically:
Go back to the current version of iOS
If you're using iOS beta and want to go back to the current version of iOS, follow these steps:
- Make sure that you're using the latest version of iTunes.
- Put your device in recovery mode and restore it. If you turned on Find My iPhone, enter your Apple ID and password after the restore to activate your device.
- If you can't finish the restore, get help.
- After the restore is complete, you can set up your device from your archived backup. This backup should be from an earlier version of iOS.

If your device has a prerelease version of iOS and you restore the device to an earlier version of iOS, you might not be able to restore your backup. This can happen if the backup is from a later version of iOS. For example, if you restore your device to the current version of iOS and try to use a backup that you created using a prerelease version of iOS.
All the best!
