# automatic

SwiftUI places the search field automatically.

## Declaration

```swift
static let automatic: SearchFieldPlacement
```

## Discussion

Discussion Placement of the search field depends on the platform: In iOS, iPadOS, and macOS, the search field appears in the toolbar. In tvOS and watchOS, the search field appears inline with its content.
