Apple File System (APFS)

Apple File System (APFS) is the modern file management system designed by Apple to efficiently organize and store data on devices like Mac, iPhone, and iPad. It improves speed, security, and reliability by optimizing how files are stored, accessed, and protected. APFS uses advanced features like snapshots (to save states), encryption (to secure data), and space sharing (to allocate storage dynamically). Its architecture ensures faster file operations, better data integrity, and seamless performance across Apple devices, making data handling more efficient and secure than previous systems.
