# WAPerformanceMode

The performance mode that indicates what performance criterion to prioritize.

```
enum WAPerformanceMode
```

## Overview> Important: Each service must have the same ``doc://com.apple.wifiaware/documentation/WiFiAware/WAPerformanceMode`` on both the
> `NetworkBrowser` (subscriber) and `NetworkListener` (publisher) sides of the
> connection, or the performance behavior is undefined. If not specified, the performance
> mode defaults to ``doc://com.apple.wifiaware/documentation/WiFiAware/WAPerformanceMode/bulk`` on both sides.

## Topics

### Setting performance modes

[`WAPerformanceMode.bulk`](/documentation/WiFiAware/WAPerformanceMode/bulk)

A mode that prioritizes throughput, power, and support for other concurrent Wi-Fi use cases and devices.

[`WAPerformanceMode.realtime`](/documentation/WiFiAware/WAPerformanceMode/realtime)

A mode that prioritizes latency at the expense of throughput, power, and other concurrent Wi-Fi use cases and devices.
