The PowerApps Toggle control functions similarly to a checkbox, allowing users to turn it on or off using its handle. The Toggle control in PowerApps is essentially a switch control. By utilizing this control, users can easily toggle the switch on or off by interacting with its handle.
The Toggle control in PowerApps provides a visual representation of a binary state, where it can be in either an "on" or "off" position. When the Toggle control is in the "on" position, it signifies that a particular setting, feature, or action is enabled. Conversely, when the Toggle control is in the "off" position, it indicates that the setting, feature, or action is disabled.
To use the Toggle control in PowerApps, you can simply add it to your app's user interface. Users can interact with the control by clicking or tapping on its handle, which is the small circular knob typically positioned on the switch. Clicking or tapping the handle will toggle the state of the control between "on" and "off".
