# animationImages

An array of [`UIImage`](/documentation/UIKit/UIImage) objects to use for an animation.

```
var animationImages: [UIImage]? { get set }
```

## Discussion

The array must contain [`UIImage`](/documentation/UIKit/UIImage) objects. You may use the same image object more than once in the array. Setting this property to a value other than `nil` hides the image represented by the [`image`](/documentation/UIKit/UIImageView/image) property. The value of this property is `nil` by default.

[`var image: UIImage?`](/documentation/UIKit/UIImageView/image)

The image displayed in the image view.
