SHSH Blobs is a part of Apple's digital signature system, which is a piece of code and embedded in each iOS firmware for each iOS device.

Part 4. FAQs About Unsigned iOS

Q1. Can I Downgrade to Unsigned iOS without SHSH Blobs?

When you use iTunes to switch between two iOS versions, Apple will use iTunes to find the SHSH Blobs to determine if you are downgrading to a signed iOS firmware. If one of the firmware is no longer signed, meaning Apple has removed its signature, then the downgrade process will fail. In short, you cannot restore an unsigned version of iOS with iTunes.

To restore to an unsigned iOS version, it can only be done unofficially, such as using a third-party tool like FutureRestore. However, even if you downgrade by unofficial restore method, you still need the SHSH Blobs. It's not possible to downgrade to an unsigned iOS version without SHSH Blobs.

Q2. What does it mean when the IPSW file is Not Signed anymore?

An unsigned iOS (IPSW) firmware is a version of iOS that is no longer supported or signed by Apple. Such a version will not receive security or feature updates.

Q3. Can I downgrade iOS 16 to 15?

Of course, using the professional iOS downgrade tool such as iMaster can help you easily downgrade iPhone from iOS 16 to iOS 15 or any other supported iOS version in just a few simple steps.

Q4. Can I trust the iPhone downgrade online service?

There are some unofficial iOS downgrade online services that claim to be able to remotely downgrade iPhone to any unsigned iOS IPSW. However, we don't recommend you to try it easily. These online services often come with certain security risks, may remotely steal personal information from your device, and some of them even disappear without a trace after charging a fee.

If you want to downgrade your iPhone safely, we still recommend you to use regular, professional and trustworthy iPhone downgrade tool such as iMaster.
