Apple TV | Betas Hey everyone, if I were to install a beta on my Apple TV how would I revert to a public version if I didn't want to be on the beta anymore? Just to be clear, I haven't installed any betas on mine but I just wanted to know the process of reverting since I'm considering it.

Apple TV 4k Wifi + Ethernet - Beta Downgrade from tvOS 17 I'd like to know if it's possible to downgrade to tvOS 16 from tvOS Beta. Since this Apple TV model does not have a USB-C port for IPSW file (link below), is it possible to revert back to tvOS, or will I need to was for the Public official release of tvOS 17? To note, I have unenrolled from the Beta program, turned the Automatic Updates for Beta to Off, and attempted a 'Rest and Update' as of July 2023. Thank you. [Link Edited by Moderator]

This page suggests that you will have to unenroll and wait for the next commercial release to hop back on the non-beta route.

No, system reset doesn’t help. So I need wait until release tvOS 12, correct?

Yes, that is what I mean: if you unenroll now, your software will be replaced when the next official release becomes available. That is the official way.

You may try to unenroll first, and then do a system reset. That might work without the wait?

Settings﹥System﹥Reset﹥Reset and Update

That didn’t work for some people, though, according to forum posts.
