All other devices with Apple A8+ chip powered models can go straight to iOS 11 and since iOS 11.2.6 is the signed version available for now, it eliminates the chance for those iOS devices to downgrade to any iOS versions below iOS 11.
How to Downgrade iPhone 5S to iOS 10.3.3
Step 2: Open your iOS 10.3.3 .ipsw using 7zip or any zip extractor you have and copy .bbfw and .im4p files into your futurerestore folder. Example; for iPhone 5s (GSM) copy Mav7Mav8-7.60.00.Release.bbfw (in Firmware ) and sep-firmware.n53.RELEASE.im4p (in Firmware\all_flash ). Other iOS device models will have aslightly different file naming matching SEP with your model and the baseband although all the version is 7.60.00.
The downgrade from iOS 11 to iOS 10.3.3 should go without a hitch, assuming you chose the proper iOS 10.3.3 IPSW file for your device, and assuming Apple is still signing the system software. Once Apple stops signing iOS 10.3.3 then downgrading to it from iOS 11 will be impossible.
Rarely, the above downgrade process will fail or get stuck on an Apple logo, or stuck on a black screen. If this happens, you can start the downgrade over again while the iPhone or iPad is in Recovery Mode or DFU mode*
If you only have a backup from iOS 11, then it will not work with an iOS 10.3.3 device that has been downgraded. Instead, you will need to download the iOS 11 update or update the device to iOS 11 through Setting app, and then restore the iOS 11 backup to the device after it has been updated to a compatible version of system software. There is no way to make an iOS 11 backup compatible with an iOS 10.3.3 device as the iOS backups are not backwards compatible.
Yes, the downgrade process no longer works. Unfortunately, my iPad Mini 3 is nearly unusable after upgrading. I keep upgrading to a later 11 release in hopes that performance improves but no luck yet.
You can no longer downgrade to iOS 10.3.3 because Apple is no longer signing iOS 10.3.3. Contacting Apple will not change that, it is no longer possible because they do not allow it anymore. This was a limited option for a limited time.
I tried downgrading with the iOS 10.3.3 file I downloaded at 5:38 pm on Sept. 29. Followed the instructions. Did not work. My iPhone 6 froze. The tried it using the recovery mode instructions. It automatically updated to iOS 11 even after following the instructions.
Worked perfectly for me. Went from 11.0.1 back to 10.3.3 on my 6s. Feels so good to have force-touch task-switcher back, plus getting rid of all the other force-touch lag that affected my 6s in iOS 11. Thanks osxdaily!
It work fine. I already done it. Just use DFU method and off ur pc/laptop connection for a while and it will not auto download ios 11. Put ur iphone in DFU mode, wait till itunes restore icon appeared and connect ur iphone to itunes using cable. Make sure u already not connected with internet. After it appear at itunes, SHIFT + Restore and choose ur ipsw file (ios 10.3.3). Just wait till it finished and you r ready to go with it. Hope it works for u guys :)

I want to do this, but I backed up my iPhone in iTunes after upgrading to iOS11. However, I also did a Time Machine backup of my whole system just BEFORE upgrading the phone to iOS11. So is there a way to restore that 10.3.3 backup from Time Machine after I do the downgrade from iOS 11? How do I access that backup on Time Machine?
Upgrades my 9.7 iPad Pro to iOS 11 and the quick key keyboard is not showing up. I was going to downgrade just so I can reinstall 11 to see if it clears up the keyboard problem. Does anyone see another solution to the keyboard problem or a reason why downgrading/upgrading would be a problem?
Well take that with a grain to salt. Every year Apple says it is impossible to downgrade from the latest iOS. That is their official response because they do not want people to downgrade. They always say that, even when it is possible. But the reality is that as long as Apple is signing the iOS version, it can be downgraded to. In this case, Apple is still signing iOS 10.3.3 so it can be downgraded to whether you are on beta or not. The beta GM is the same as the final build, so if Support says you can downgrade from that, well, you get the idea.
I was updated IOS 11.1 yesterday. But its not good now. my some applications does not working properly. What should I do. should I downgrade or wait till next good update will appear. Its sooooo confusing. logically, next update should be better than previous one. but IOS 11.1 not good too. Now I am starting hate iPhone.
You may be able to downgrade if you still have the ISPW file for 10.3.3 on your iTunes . Just be aware that if you have done a backup with the current iOS version you are running, that backup CANNOT be downgraded. Doing so will have you starting as a new device with 10.3.3 installed. Now if you have a backup under 10.3.3, then once you downgrade, you can restore to that backup which may be older than a current one. With that being said if you have a Mac and have been doing your updates through your Mac instead of wirelessly through the device itself, you may have the 10.3.3 file still with you.
If you do have the file, it should say iPhone_x.x_10.3.3_xxxxx_Restore.ipsw where the x is based on your phone model and version of the software for it (even through you usually see just the version of iOS being update when you do your regular updates, each update is very specific to the device model). Once you are sure you have the file for your device, copy it and place it on your desktop for ease of use for our next step.
once your device is in recovery mode, press and hold down the option key on your Mac and select restore/restore iPhone. When the search finder window opens up, navigate to where you previously placed your IPSW file and select it. Now you will begin the process of erasing the device and recovering to 10.3.3.
If you are unable to recover bak to 10.3.3, enter your device on recovery mode again as per the link above and just do a restore without pressing any keys down. This will then install the latest iOS on the device from which you can restore with the previous backup you had.

There's lots of new stuff in iOS 11, but just because things have changed doesn't mean they're better. So if you've updated to Apple's latest OS and decided it wasn't for you, you'll be happy to know that you can still go back to iOS 10.3.3.
UPDATE: Apple is no longer signing iOS 10.3.3, so your chance to downgrade back from iOS 11 is no longer an option. However, you can still use this guide to downgrade an iOS 11.X.X version back to a previous iOS 11 version that's still be signed by Apple. The process is the same.
Until that day comes, however, it's actually quite easy to revert to iOS 10.3.3. All you need is a Mac or Windows PC, and the process only takes a few minutes of work, so let's go ahead and get started, shall we?
Next, you'll need to download the iOS 10.3.3 IPSW file for your particular device. This is a firmware file you'll be installing with iTunes to roll back your operating system, and luckily, we have a highly trusted source where you can get this file. So head to the following link from your computer, then pick your device and model.
From here, choose iOS 10.3.3 when prompted, then click the "Download" button. The file is rather large, so it may take a while to download, but make sure to note the file's location once it's finished.
After a few seconds, you'll see a popup informing you that iTunes will now install iOS 10.3.3 on your device. Click "Restore" here, then sit back and wait, because the process of installing the older firmware will take up to 30 minutes. Along the way, you may be prompted to enter your PIN on your device, so make sure to do that if asked.
Once the process has finished, run through initial setup on your iPhone, then select "Set Up as New" if you want a fresh start, or "Restore from iCloud Backup" if you want to get all your apps and data back. If going with the latter, just sign in with your Apple ID, then select the most recent iOS 10.3.3 backup, and your apps and data will be restored. You can also choose "Restore from iTunes Backup" instead if you archived iOS 10.3.3 before installing iOS 11.
At this point, you should be back to the comfy confines of iOS 10.3.3. But if you're having any trouble with the above downgrading method, let us know in the comment section below and we'll try to steer you in the right direction.
I downgraded my iphone 6 with this. And now it won't turn on. Instead it only shows the apple logo. I tried resetting it using my laptop and iTunes. And it won't just do. How do I fix this. I want to cry. Please respond as soon as possible.
This worked on my iPhone 5s - thank you!!! I had to get a new phone today due to a swollen battery problem, and discovered the new phone would only upgrade to 11. My itunes backup from the old phone, however, was in 10.3. Getting 10.3.3 on the new phone let me get all my old settings, info, and apps back - yay! 2ff7e9595c
