ToggleButton

Android

Component in Wear Material Compose

Wear Material [ToggleButton] that offers a single slot to take any content (text, icon or image).

The [ToggleButton] is circular in shape and defaults to size [ToggleButtonDefaults.DefaultToggleButtonSize] or [ToggleButtonDefaults.SmallToggleButtonSize]. Icon content should be of size [ToggleButtonDefaults.DefaultIconSize] or [ToggleButtonDefaults.SmallIconSize] respectively.

The recommended set of checked and unchecked [ToggleButtonColors] can be obtained from [ToggleButtonDefaults.toggleButtonColors], which defaults to checked colors being a solid background of [Colors.primary] with content color of [Colors.onPrimary] and unchecked colors being a solid background of [Colors.surface] with content color of [Colors.onSurface].

[ToggleButton]s can be enabled or disabled. A disabled toggle button will not respond to click events.
