# isCenterStageEnabled

A Boolean value that indicates whether a user or an app enabled Center Stage on a device.

```
class var isCenterStageEnabled: Bool { get set }
```

## Discussion

You can only set this value when Center Stage is under app or cooperative control. Attempting to change the enabled state when the control mode is [`AVCaptureDevice.CenterStageControlMode.user`](/documentation/AVFoundation/AVCaptureDevice/CenterStageControlMode-swift.enum/user), results in the system throwing an exception.

> Note:
> When Center Stage is under user or cooperative control, the user may change the feature’s enabled state in Control Center. Key-value observe this property value to monitor these changes.
