At the time of writing Apple is signing iOS 13 as well as iOS 12.4.1. This means that you can either revert to an older edition of iOS 13.x or go straight back to the old-school iOS 12.4.1 release, which we all know is super stable for all iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users out there. Besides, since we are still riding the early version train of iOS 13.x, therefore it is a good idea to stick with something that's far more stable than anything else out there. In this case, that is iOS 12.4.1.

Note: If you are planning to downgrade iPadOS / iOS 13.1 to iOS 12.4.1, please make sure that you have backed up everything to iCloud or iTunes. It only takes a few minutes and will protect your data from being lost.
