Can you use a beta software profile backup for a new iPhone?

I

iMore Question

Hi,
I downloaded a beta software profile last weekend to my 6 so that I could to try out iOS 10 since an email from Apple said that it was the Gold Master version that will be released to the public soon; I know I should have just wanted but I was impatient and wanted to see what it looked like. Since then I have purchased an iPhone 7 and now would like to update this new phone using an iCloud backup from my 6. Is this going to cause any problems because I changed the profile of my 6? Meaning, can I use a backup from my old phone without a problem and, if it works, will my 7 have a beta software profile as well? I don?t want it to so I?m not sure what to do other than start fresh with the 7.
Thanks,
J

No. You're backup will work like always.
I don't know about the profile, but you can delete it in Settings if it is there.
