Now that Apple has stopped signing iOS 16.1, if you have already upgraded your device to iOS 16.1.2 you will no longer be able to downgrade to the previous versions.
Apple is currently working on a new beta of iOS in the form of iOS 16.2, we just had the iOS 16.2 Release Candidate release to developers. Assuming that there are no issues with the Release Candidate, the next software will be the final version and this is expected to be released next week.
