So we've already had this function built into the Apple Store app!

Exactly.... that's why it's a worthless update to me. Huuuuge disappointment IF that's the biggest new feature.

I love all the movie/tv references in the iOS software packages.

Iceman and Maverick, Maggie and Homer

...Perhaps plenty of reasonable and rational explanations that could apply?

Like it was just something that one guy happen to say and lots of people believed him?

I would rather have a free feature buit in the OS than a paid third party app...

It's like faster or something

 

[friednoodles]

Wow, they're rolling out APFS already? That was fast. I hope everyone has a backup, just in case.

This will probably prevent me from upgrading to any 10.3 beta. Don't know what the ramifications or consequences are.

PSA: You need the latest version of Xcode to install via iTunes.

Same here on 7 Plus

Does the iCloud app still open every freaking folder when you try and upload a file?

 

[Mudodonbond]

iCloud is now on top of everything.

It means a lot. APFS is a modern file system with lots of interesting features that HFS+ either does not have or has obtained through convoluted workarounds. APFS is basically a refactoring of these features and it implements some advances in this area that other, newer file systems have obtained over the years.

I don’t think it will be that much of a deal for the iPhone user. In terms of raw performance, I don’t think you will see any leaps. I do think that you will get quicker and more predictable information about your storage usage though.

On macOS, it has more interesting user features. It has its own snapshotting feature built in that could replace Time Machine. Moreover, you will have more flexibility in terms of disk partitioning and it should also get rid of the separate CoreStorage layer.
