# isHovered

A Boolean value that indicates whether a pointer effect is active.

```
var isHovered: Bool { get }
```

## Discussion

If you enable pointer interaction by setting [`isPointerInteractionEnabled`](/documentation/UIKit/UIButton/isPointerInteractionEnabled), this property indicates the button has an active pointer effect.
