# canStopPictureInPicture

A Boolean value that indicates whether Picture in Picture is active and is able to stop.

```
var canStopPictureInPicture: Bool { get }
```

## Discussion

When this value is `true`, calling [`stopPictureInPicture()`](/documentation/AVKit/AVPictureInPictureController/stopPictureInPicture()) stops the active Picture in Picture session. Apps should update the state of UI that starts Picture in Picture when this property value changes.

Thie value is key-value observable.
