# init(blurEffect:)

Creates a vibrancy effect for a specific blur effect.

## Declaration

```swift
init(blurEffect: UIBlurEffect)
```

## Parameters

- `blurEffect`: The doc://com.apple.uikit/documentation/UIKit/UIBlurEffect used by the blurred view the vibrancy effect is attached to.

## Return Value

Return Value The vibrancy effect to be used by a UIVisualEffectView object.

## Discussion

Discussion When you create a new vibrancy effect, use the same UIBlurEffect that you used to create the blur view. Using a different UIBlurEffect can cause unwanted visual effect combinations.
