# BAUsesAppleHosting

A Boolean value that indicates whether you use Apple’s service to host your asset packs.

## Discussion

Use this key if you set the [`BAHasManagedAssetPacks`](/documentation/BundleResources/Information-Property-List/BAHasManagedAssetPacks) key to  `YES`. Then, if you set this key to `YES`, use the StoreKit `StoreDownloaderExtension` protocol in your extension; otherwise, use the Background Assets `ManagedDownloaderExtension` protocol.
