# accessoryType

The accessory that the list item displays in its trailing region.

```
var accessoryType: CPListItemAccessoryType { get set }
```

## Discussion

If you update the list item to display an accessory image using the [`setAccessoryImage(_:)`](/documentation/CarPlay/CPListItem/setAccessoryImage(_:)) method, CarPlay sets this property’s value to [`CPListItemAccessoryType.none`](/documentation/CarPlay/CPListItemAccessoryType/none).
