According to Apple, this update is their biggest release since the launch of the App Store. They’re not kidding as the update is 1GB in size (964MB on the iPhone 5C) and requires at least 4.7GB of free internal storage. That can be a problem if you have a 16GB model with lots of photos, videos, and big apps on board.
