    interactionSource: MutableInteractionSource? = null
)

Parameters

namedescription
selectedwhether this radio button is selected or not
onClickcalled when this radio button is clicked. If null, then this radio button will not be interactable, unless something else handles its input events and updates its state.
modifierthe [Modifier] to be applied to this radio button
enabledcontrols the enabled state of this radio button. When false, this component will not respond to user input, and it will appear visually disabled and disabled to accessibility services.
colors[RadioButtonColors] that will be used to resolve the color used for this radio button in different states. See [RadioButtonDefaults.colors].
interactionSourcean optional hoisted [MutableInteractionSource] for observing and emitting [Interaction]s for this radio button. You can use this to change the radio button's appearance or preview the radio button in different states. Note that if null is provided, interactions will still happen internally.

Code Examples

RadioButtonSample

@Preview
@Composable
fun RadioButtonSample() {
    // We have two radio buttons and only one can be selected
    var state by remember { mutableStateOf(true) }
    // Note that Modifier.selectableGroup() is essential to ensure correct accessibility behavior.
    // We also set a content description for this sample, but note that a RadioButton would usually
    // be part of a higher level component, such as a raw with text, and that component would need
    // to provide an appropriate content description. See RadioGroupSample.
    Row(Modifier.selectableGroup()) {
        RadioButton(
            selected = state,
            onClick = { state = true },
            modifier = Modifier.semantics { contentDescription = "Localized Description" }
        )
        RadioButton(
            selected = !state,
            onClick = { state = false },
            modifier = Modifier.semantics { contentDescription = "Localized Description" }
        )
