# isRemote

Specifies whether the remote was generated by a push notification.

```
var isRemote: Bool { get }
```

## Discussion

If this property is <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/true> then the user notification was generated by a push notification (that is, remotely); if <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/false> it was generated locally.
