I'm on Chrome, so probably discount me, but it's a terrible UI pattern. Checkboxes serve the same use cases, and don't rely on color changes to identify which state means "yes". Like with Toast, just because Native made a UI mistake doesn't mean it needs to be in HTML.

My wishes:

We call it "AI" while it doesn't work. Once it works, it gets a more precise name.

I don't want a video explaining how to do the thing. I want step-by-step instructions in a plain text document, on a single page, ideally that I can see all of without scrolling while using a reasonably big font.
