iPhone Update from Beta to Official Release

[SoCalGadgetGuy]

If this is the wrong forum for this question, please advise...

I am running Beta 3 of 13.3.1 on my iPhone 11 Pro Max. Now that the official release version of 13.3.1 is out, it shows up as an update. So, can I just “update” to that version? Or do I have to remove the beta profile first?

Remove profile
Reboot phone
Install update if prompted
Done

Thanks. So if a beta 13.3.2 comes around, I just have to reinstall the profile to get it?

Yes, but what is the point of switching between beta/public releases on a regular basis? At some point in the beta cycle you still get a “mature” beta which then becomes the public release. If you were fine running beta 13.3.1 for a while and seem to want to try beta 13.3.2 which might come out as soon as next week, why go public at all?

Understood. I only go beta for very specific issues. If I’m having no issues or there are no new features in which I am interested, then I stay with the official release.

For example, 13.3 broke a feature in CarPlay for certain vehicles. I tested 13.3.1 betas (1, 2, and 3) specifically for that fix.
