# gameChat

A mode that the GameKit framework sets on behalf of an application that uses GameKit’s voice chat service.

## Declaration

```swift
static let gameChat: AVAudioSession.Mode
```

## Discussion

Discussion This mode is valid only with the playAndRecord audio session category. Don’t set this mode directly. If you need similar behavior and aren’t using a GKVoiceChat object, use voiceChat or videoChat instead.
