Switches
Intro
The switch control mimics a physical switch that allows users to turn individual settings (such as personalization or display settings) “on” or “off”. When users change a switch to “on”, they expect an instantaneous action as soon as the switch changes state.
Usage
Do’s
- Use switches in a switch form cell only.
- Use switches to control the availability of related UI elements on current screen.
Don’ts
- Don’t use switches for selecting states other than on and off.
- Don’t use switches without a form cell container.
Structure
A. Text Label
The text label describes the object this switch is controlling.
B. Switch
The switch control is located on the right side of the cell.

Behavior & Interactions
Each switch form cell is one touch target. To change the state of a switch, the user can tap anywhere within the cell to toggle. When a switch is disabled, apply 50% opacity to the whole cell. Disabled cells are not interactive.

Validation Message
Use validation message only when necessary: to show error message or direct feedback of this control. Do not distract users with unimportant information. For page level feedback, use a snackbar instead.
The validation message should be concise. One line of text is recommended for the validation message.
By default, there is no validation message. When the validation message is triggered, insert the message with padding below the label text (before the divider line if used). The content under it will be pushed down.

Specs
Padding and Alignment
Switch form cell is responsive to screen size. The horizontal padding follows the keylines of the device.
