Volume Toggle Switch for Ark UI

A muted speaker, a switch that starts on, and a speaker icon. The name is Sound, and the icons do not swap.

A muted speaker, a switch, and a speaker icon sit in a row. The switch starts on. The icons stay where they are. Its accessible name is Sound.

Use it for notification sounds or a player mute, where the icons suggest the setting. They are hidden from assistive tech, so the name has to say Sound. A choice saved with a form fits a Checkbox. In React, Ark UI does not change the volume.

FAQ

What do the two icons show?

VolumeXIcon, a muted speaker, comes before the switch with size-4 text-muted-foreground. Volume2Icon comes after it with size-4. Both have aria-hidden, and the row is flex items-center gap-2.

What do screen readers call this switch?

The icons are hidden from screen readers, so the switch has aria-label (Sound). On means sound plays.

How do I control this switch in React?

The switch starts on through its default prop, which only sets the starting state; after that it keeps its own state. To control it, keep the on or off state in your own state and pass it back. The prop is defaultChecked. Pass checked; onCheckedChange receives details.checked.

How do I add a visible label to this switch?

Put the Switch in a horizontal Field next to a FieldLabel. Clicking the label toggles the switch, and screen readers read the label with it. The Field links the label to the switch for you.

How do I make this switch smaller?

Set size="sm". The default size is default. For a different track or thumb, edit those classes in the Switch file in your ui folder.

Which keys toggle the switch?

Tab moves focus to the switch. Space toggles it, and so does Enter.
