# PHAssetCollectionSubtype.smartAlbumFavorites

A Smart Album that groups all assets that the user marks as favorites.

```
case smartAlbumFavorites
```

## Discussion

The user’s favorite assets are those whose [`isFavorite`](/documentation/Photos/PHAsset/isFavorite) property is `true`. You mark an asset as a favorite by setting the [`isFavorite`](/documentation/Photos/PHAssetChangeRequest/isFavorite) property of a [`PHAssetChangeRequest`](/documentation/Photos/PHAssetChangeRequest) object.
