I deleted beta profile thinking RC 1 will be final version, how can install again? Apple site is showing only for iOS 16 only
 
If I downgrade from 15.6 RC2 to 15.5, will it downgrade the model firmware too or will it stay with the latest?
 
I think I am having a dumb moment.

Edit: Yes I was..... for some reason resetting the Privacy & location settings, and then it asking to trust my computer again sorted the issue.

What problem did you solve with this approach?

RAM management is really poor on both RC versions. Apps are constantly reloading.
 
After updating to iOS PB 15.6 and 16, you can no longer see the battery level of AirTags in the Find My App.

Installed it and feels and acts exactly like iOS 15.5 you wouldn’t even know you have an update
