what do I do?

Had to restore from scratch.
Couldn't restore ios12 beta on ios11.
Redownloaded the beta profile.
Only way to get ios12 on my device is to download beta 4.
Backup is beta 3

How do I do it?


edit:downloaded ios12 beta 3 from google. going to restore to that then restore from my backup. idk if developer beta is different than public beta. hopefully it won't give me probs. not sure if this is how I should do it

The labels “developer beta” and “public beta” have to with the timing of their release, not the build. So, for iOS 12:
DB1
DB2=PB1
DB3=PB2
DB4=PB3
DB5=PB4

software is backwards compatible with backups. so iOS 12 can use an iOS 11 backup. but 11 can't use a 12. same goes for point updates and betas
