UISwitch subclass that 'infects' the parent view with the onTintColor when the switch is turned on. Inspired by this Dribble by Ramotion.
Screenshot
Installation
Using cocoapods:
pod 'AMViralSwitch'
Using Carthage:
github "andreamazz/ViralSwitch"
Usage
AMViralSwitch is a drop-in replacement of UISwitch:
- Use
AMViralSwitchinstead ofUISwitch - Set the
onTintColorproperty of the switch
The switch will automatically infect its superview with the selected color.
Animation duration
Use animationDuration property to control the animation's speed:
self.toggle.animationDuration = 1.0
Animation completion
You can set a completion block for both on and off animations:
self.toggle.completionOn = {
print("Enabled")
}
self.toggle.completionOff = {
print("Disabled")
}
Animate views
You can animate other views alongside the switch infection. Typically you'll want to change color to views or labels that are inside the same superview. You can animate CoreAnimation properties likes this:
Swift
toggle.animationElementsOn = [
[
AMElementView: self.greenView.layer,
AMElementKeyPath: "backgroundColor",
AMElementFromValue: UIColor.blackColor().CGColor,
AMElementToValue: UIColor.whiteColor().CGColor
]
]
Objective-C
self.toggle.animationElementsOn = @[
@[ AMElementView: self.greenView.layer,
AMElementKeyPath: @"backgroundColor",
AMElementFromValue: (id)[UIColor clearColor].CGColor,
AMElementToValue: (id)[UIColor whiteColor].CGColor }
];
To animate the textColor of an UILabel the syntax is slightly different:
Swift
toggle.animationElementsOn = [
[
AMElementView: label,
AMElementKeyPath: "textColor",
AMElementFromValue: UIColor.blackColor(),
AMElementToValue: UIColor.whiteColor()
]
]
Objective-C
self.blueSwitch.animationElementsOn = @[
@{ AMElementView: self.blueLabel,
AMElementKeyPath: @"textColor",
AMElementToValue: [UIColor whiteColor] }
];
Follow the same principle to animate the tintColor of your UIButtons:
Swift
toggle.animationElementsOn = [
[
AMElementView: self.infoButton,
AMElementKeyPath: "tintColor",
AMElementToValue: UIColor.whiteColor()
]
]
Objective-C
self.blueSwitch.animationElementsOn = @[
@{ AMElementView: self.infoButton,
AMElementKeyPath: @"tintColor",
AMElementToValue: [UIColor whiteColor] }
];

Hello. I've found the following bug. I use ViralSwitch in my UITable and have some cells for more than one screen. When I switched on the top switcher and scrolled table to bottom and again to top - border of switcher disappeared.
I've fix this by changing one string of code:
AMViralSwitch.m:- (void)switchChanged:
Line 80
old: self.layer.borderWidth = 0;
new: self.layer.borderWidth = 1;
And result after scrolling:
