# customTypeName

An optional name that the system presents to the user if you choose the custom context type.

## Declaration

```swift
var customTypeName: String? { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion The system ignores the value of this property unless you set the context’s type property to CLSContextType.custom. If you set the type name, provide a localized value. If you use a custom context type but don’t set the type name, the system presents a default, localized string instead.
