Best practices

Toggles should provide immediate results - should not require the user to click Save or Submit to apply the new state.

Use when:

  • you need it's needed to clearly show the mode or state  and should not require the user to click Save or Submit to apply the new state

  • The response is required immediately after the user “flips” the Toggle switch. They are commonly used for “On/Off” situations.

Don’t use:

  • The user has to choose several options

  • The user has to perform several actions for the change to become effective (in this case, choose checkboxes)

  • part of a form (use radio buttons instead)

General

  • Use adjectives rather than verbs to describe labels (e.g. Show week number) and the state of the object affected

  • Toggles should provide immediate results - should not require the user to click Save or Submit to apply the new state.
