APFS should have been introduced some time ago. iOS It used the HFS+ file system, which was introduced in 1998. APFS is a direct successor to HFS. Of course, a lot has changed since the original HFS debuted in the XNUMXs.
The era of mechanical hard drives, floppy disks and other such devices is long gone, and many of today's computers can be conveniently carried with you everywhere. The APFS system was announced by the company Apple at last year's WWDC. APFS is a file system designed for flash and SSD drives and emphasizes scalability. It can work equally well on Apple Watch like on MacBookat Pro.
From a security perspective, APFS is a completely different cup of coffee. Its main selling point is native encryption support with snapshot support, making it easier to restore your iOS devices. The new file system also comes with a completely different way of calculating available storage. As a result, many users have seen an increase in their usable storage. Another advantage of APFS is faster reading and writing of files to and from the system.

Do I have 2GB more?
iPhone SE -> after the update, there was more than 2GB of available memory. That may not mean anything, because even previous "Big" updates cleared the cache. So I'm curious how the storage will be after a longer period of time. That there wouldn't be so many files stored in the cache .....?
Otherwise, the only changes I noticed were the addition of the Podcasts app. widget in the new version iOS :-)
Oh yeah..before the iP6 showed me +/-58,5GB capacity and now I have 60,35GB there ????
Does the update also apply to ip 5?
Also almost 2GB more, and another thing is that it seems a bit faster. But that will probably just be my feeling, I have an iP6 and I am satisfied.
If only they had put a sd slot
