# pauseOnWillResignActive

A Boolean value that indicates whether the view controller automatically pauses the rendering loop when the application resigns the active state.

## Declaration

```swift
var pauseOnWillResignActive: Bool { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion The default value is true. If your application sets this to false, it must explicitly set the isPaused property to true when the application resigns the active state.
