newer version is available for Bootstrap 5. We recommend migrating to the latest version of our product - Material Design for

Bootstrap switch/toggle is a simple component used for activating one of two predefined options. Commonly used as an on/off button.
It's mostly used in a number of various forms since they are very simple to use and cut the time one needs to fill all the inputs.
Examples of Bootstrap switch use:
- Forms
- On/Off Functionality
- Preference choice
Default switch
A switch has the markup of a custom checkbox but uses the .custom-switch
class to render a toggle
switch.
Switches also support the disabled
attribute.
<!-- Default switch -->
<div class="custom-control custom-switch">
<input type="checkbox" class="custom-control-input" id="customSwitches">
<label class="custom-control-label" for="customSwitches">Toggle this switch element</label>
</div>

Material Design styling for the Bootstrap Switch component
<!-- Material switch -->
<div class="switch">
<label>
Off
<input type="checkbox">
<span class="lever"></span> On
</label>
</div>
Checked state
Add the checked
attribute to the <input>
element to pre-select the switch when the page
loads.
The checked
attribute is a boolean attribute.
Default switch
<!-- Default checked -->
<div class="custom-control custom-switch">
<input type="checkbox" class="custom-control-input" id="customSwitch1" checked>
<label class="custom-control-label" for="customSwitch1">Toggle this switch element</label>
</div>
Material switch MDB Pro component
<!-- Material checked -->
<div class="switch">
<label>
Off
<input type="checkbox" checked>
<span class="lever"></span> On
</label>
</div>
Disabled state
Add the disabled
boolean attribute to the <input>
element and the custom indicator and the
label description will be automatically styled and blocked.
A disabled <input>
element is unusable and un-clickable.
Default switch
<!-- Default disabled -->
<div class="custom-control custom-switch">
<input type="checkbox" class="custom-control-input" id="customSwitch2" disabled>
<label class="custom-control-label" for="customSwitch2">Toggle this switch element</label>
</div>
