Android Switch Widget With Text on Right

Mar 18, 2019

Switch only support text on the left side.

You need to use TextView to show Switch text on the right.

<LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:orientation="horizontal">

    <Switch
        android:id="@+id/publishSwitch"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/publishTextView"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="Publish?" />

</LinearLayout>
