When to use switch buttons

Switch buttons are a binary element, meaning the button status can only be “on” or “off”. The action is triggered as soon as it is clicked (or tapped), unlike a checkbox, for example, which requires users to press an additional button to apply the settings. If you use a switch button, users will not need the additional step of explicitly saving the settings.
