Downgrade iOS 9.3.5 to 9.3.3 Free Guide
It’s extremely easy to downgrade iOS 9.3.5 to 9.3.3 as long as you follow the free step by step guide here. It works very similar to our previous guide how to downgrade iOS 10 to 9 (9.3.2 or 9.3.3 or 9.3.4). The entire process require no advance computer knowledge but you have to do it before Apple stops signing iOS 9.3.3, 9.3.2 or 9.3.1. As there are no third-party apps to downgrade iOS 9.3.5 to 9.3.3 or 9.3.2 with one click, you will have to do it via iTunes. Therefore, it is a must to do it now while Apple still sign for all the iOS 9 versions.
For any reasons if you regret to upgrade to iOS 9.3.5, you may now follow the steps below to downgrade to iOS 9.3.3 or 9.3.2 from iOS 9.3.5. From iOS 9.3 to lower iOS version, see how to downgrade from iOS 9.3 to iOS 9.2 or 9.1.
How to Downgrade iOS 9.3.5 to 9.3.3
As of September, 2016, Apple still signs iOS 9.3.3 as well as 9.3.2. There is still a time frame given to Apple users to downgrade their iOS version on iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch. Everything works very easy if you already have a backup of iOS 9.3.3, 9.3.2 or other iOS 9 versions you would like to restore. You will have to restore everything from scratch if you don’t have a backup. Restoring your iOS version could resulting in data lost, thus, please backup everything before you proceed to downgrade. To downgrade iOS 9 to iOS 8, see downgrade from iOS 9 to iOS 8.4.
Step 1: Open a web browser and go to IPSW.me. Choose your platform to download iOS 9.3.3 install file. Instead, download iOS 9.3.4 or iOS 9.3.2 install file if you would like to downgrade iOS 9.3.5 to 9.3.2 or 9.3.4. Generally, the install file is approximately 2-2.5GB.
Step 2: Connect your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch to a Mac or PC via a USB cable.
Step 3: Open iTunes. Go to Help > Check for Updates to update your iTunes to the latest version if it hasn’t been update for some time.
Step 4: Click on Back Up Now to run a backup if you haven’t do it. Alternatively, you can do it via iCloud.
Step 5: Disable Find My iPhone / Find My iPad via Settings > iCloud > Find My iPhone / Find My iPad.
Step 6: Put your device into DFU mode by pressing and holding the Home + Power buttons together.
Step 7: In iTunes, a Device in Recovery message will appear. Go to Summary, press Shift key (for Windows user) or ALT key (for Mac user) on your keyboard and click on “Restore iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch” at the same time.
Step 8: Select the iOS 9.3.3 ipsw install file you downloaded in step 1. Instead, select iOS 9.3.2 if you are downgrading to iOS 9.3.2.
Step 9: Within a few minutes, your device will downgrade to iOS 9.3.3. You can set it like a new iOS device or restore the backup you created just now. You can now jailbreak and download Cydia on iOS 9.3.3 with Pangu.
Last but not least, drop a message if you face any problem during the downgrade. Also, not to forget to read Downgrade from Yosemite to Mavericks Guide and How to Downgrade iOS 8 to iOS 7.

Apple isn’t going to sign further 9.3.3 iOS firmware so it won’t work anymore for downgrading your iOS device.
