IPSW, iPhone Software, is a file format used to install iOS, iPadOS, tvOS, HomePod, and macOS firmware on Apple devices. It can be used to restore a device to factory settings or update its operating system.

You can use iTunes or 3uTools to restore your device using an IPSW file. Simply download the correct IPSW file for your device, connect your device to your computer, and use iTunes or 3uTools to select and restore the firmware.

You can download IPSW files directly from our website IPSWDL.COM. Our website provides you with IPSW download links directly from Apple’s servers.

We offer downloads for various devices, including iPhones, iPads, Macs, Apple TV, Apple Watch, and HomePods. Simply select your device category and download the appropriate firmware.

IPSW files are full firmware packages used for restoring or updating devices via iTunes or Finder, while OTA (Over-The-Air) updates are incremental updates delivered directly to devices via Wi-Fi, often smaller in size and quicker to install.

Downgrading is possible if Apple is still signing the older version of iOS you wish to install. You can check the signing status of an IPSW file before attempting a downgrade.
