# tabViewBottomAccessory(isEnabled:content:) Places a view as the bottom accessory of the tab view. Use this modifier to dynamically show and hide the accessory view. ``` nonisolated func tabViewBottomAccessory(isEnabled: Bool, @ContentBuilder content: () -> Content) -> some View where Content : View ``` ## Parameters `isEnabled` If true, the bottom accessory is shown; otherwise, the bottom accessory is hidden. `content` The content view of the tab view accessory. ## Discussion On iPhone, the placement of the bottom accessory depends on the tab bar size: when the tab bar is normal size, the accessory appears above it; when the tab bar is collapsed, the accessory displays inline. Use the [`tabViewBottomAccessoryPlacement`](/documentation/SwiftUI/EnvironmentValues/tabViewBottomAccessoryPlacement) environment value to adjust the accessory’s content based on its placement. The following example shows a status view in the `TabView` bottom accessory when there’s a status update. ``` TabView { Tab("Home", systemImage: "house") { HomeView() } Tab("Alerts", systemImage: "bell") { AlertsView() } TabSection("Categories") { Tab("Climate", systemImage: "fan") { ClimateView() } Tab("Lights", systemImage: "lightbulb") { LightsView() } } } .tabViewBottomAccessory(isEnabled: hasStatusUpdate) { HomeStatusView() } ``` --- Copyright © 2026 Apple Inc.
