            <div class="switch">
              <label>
                Off
                <input type="checkbox">
                <span class="lever"></span> On
              </label>
            </div>

          

Checked state

Add checked attribute to the <input> element to pre-select switch when the page loads.

The checked attribute is a boolean attribute.

Default switch



            <!-- Default checked -->
            <label class="bs-switch">
              <input type="checkbox" checked>
              <span class="slider round"></span>
            </label>

            <!-- 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> and the custom indicator and label description will be automatically styled and blocked.

A disabled <input> element is unusable and un-clickable.

            <!-- Default disabled -->
            <label class="bs-switch">
              <input type="checkbox" disabled>
              <span class="slider round"></span>
