# recentDocumentsContentTypes

Content types for browsing recent documents.

## Declaration

```swift
var recentDocumentsContentTypes: [String] { get }
```

## Discussion

Discussion The default list is the same as the list of content types provided to the initializer, or the types defined in CFBundleDocumentTypes in the app’s Info.plist file. You can define a subset of these types using the key UIDocumentBrowserRecentDocumentContentTypes in the app’s Info.plist file.
