Label

iOS

import { Label } from "@/components/ui/label"

export function LabelExample() {
  return (
    <Label>Your email address</Label>
  )
}

Label renders a Text inside a Pressable row. The pressable accepts onPress, onLongPress, onPressIn and onPressOut, so pressing the label can toggle or focus the control next to it. A disabled label uses a muted color.

Installation

$ pnpm dlx @esuiss/uim@latest add label

Usage

import { Label } from "@/components/ui/label"

<Label>Your email address</Label>

Set a nativeID on the label and point the control's accessibilityLabelledBy at it, so screen readers read the label with the control.

For a checkbox or switch, pass an onPress that toggles the control, which gives a larger touch target. Inside a Field, use FieldLabel instead.

Examples

With input

A label linked to an input through nativeID and accessibilityLabelledBy.

iOS

import { View } from "react-native"
import { Input } from "@/components/ui/input"
import { Label } from "@/components/ui/label"

export function LabelWithInputExample() {
  return (
    <View className="gap-2">
      <Label nativeID="label-email">Email</Label>
      <Input
        accessibilityLabelledBy="label-email"
        placeholder="[email protected]"
      />
    </View>
  )
}

import EsuissUI
import SwiftUI

struct LabelWithInput: View {
  @State private var email = ""

  var body: some View {
    VStack(alignment: .leading, spacing: 8) {
      FieldLabel("Email")
        .accessibilityHidden(true)
      TextField(String("[email protected]"), text: $email)
        .textFieldStyle(.input)
        .keyboardType(.emailAddress)
        .textInputAutocapitalization(.never)
        .accessibilityLabel(Text("Email"))
    }

        Input(email, { email = it }, Modifier.semantics { contentDescription = "Email" }, placeholder = "[email protected]")
    }
}

With checkbox

A label next to a checkbox that toggles it when pressed.

Disabled

A disabled label.

iOS

import { Label } from "@/components/ui/label"

export function LabelDisabledExample() {
  return (
    <Label disabled>Disabled label</Label>
  )
}

API Reference

Label

ExtendsReact.ComponentProps<typeof LabelPrimitive.Text>

Accessibility

The label text reports its disabled state in accessibilityState.
Link it to its control with nativeID on the label and accessibilityLabelledBy on the control.

Notes

Text uses the text-label token, and text-label-quaternary when disabled.
Light and dark colors follow the system appearance.
