A Boolean value that indicates whether the title displays in a large format.

```
var prefersLargeTitles: Bool { get set }
```

## Discussion

When this property is set to <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/true>, the navigation bar allows the title to be displayed out-of-line and using a larger font. The navigation item used to build the bar must specify whether it wants its title displayed in the large or small format. Use the [`largeTitleDisplayMode`](/documentation/UIKit/UINavigationItem/largeTitleDisplayMode-swift.property) property to configure the title’s appearance.

When the property is set to <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/false>, the navigation bar displays the title inline with the other bar button items.
