Hi I'm on public beta 5 and the Battery is okay.. It was much better on ios11.. I was wondering when ios beta 6 comes out to see if it improves or go back to ios 11.

If I factory data my iPad will I go back to ios 11?

You’ll need to use iTunes and install iOS 11 over the existing iOS 12 installation. It’s not difficult but you’ll need to perform certain steps. Read here:

You might want to check your battery health in Settings > Battery first though. If it’s a hardware issue with your battery then downgrading to iOS 11 isn’t going to fix it.

Yes but you’ll have to start from scratch (Settings, apps, etc) because you can’t restore from an iOS 12 backup.

I’m surprised your battery life is worse on iOS 12. The beta as a whole is getting positive reviews. The GM of iOS 12 is likely to drop in less than a month as well.
