# WKSupportsAlwaysOnDisplay

A Boolean value that determines whether the system displays the app in the Always On state.

## Discussion

If <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/true>, the system displays the app in the Always On state when the app is the frontmost app or running an active background session. Apps compiled for watchOS 8 and later have Always On enabled by default; however, users can disable Always On for the entire device or on a per-app basis by selecting Settings > Display & Brightness > Always On.

For more information, see `Designing Your App for the Always On State`.
