I have implemented a custom switch (like iOS) in android. It's working perfectly in xhdpi devices (Nexus 4, moto g3). But can't reduce the track width of switch in Nexus S. its too lengthy.

There are several small issues with Switch making it not work uniformly. In your case you need to use android:textOff and android:textOn with value "". Otherwise the width of the track and of the thumbs will be adjusted to hold the text. Also you need to define android:thumbTextPadding to assure the size of the thumb. The drawable is just a background and doesn't effect it directly.
<Switch
android:id="#+id/row_device_switch"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
android:layout_marginRight="14dp"
android:switchMinWidth="#dimen/custom_switcher_circle_radius"
android:textOff=""
android:textOn=""
android:thumb="#drawable/customswitchselector"
android:thumbTextPadding="#dimen/switch_thumb_radius"
android:track="#drawable/custom_track" />
The #dimen/custom_switcher_circle_radius should have a value of half of the #dimen/custom_switcher_circle_size dimension.
Is there any way to make the height of the thumb of a switch bigger than the track height in Android versions prior to Lollipop ?
I am essentially trying to create a material design-like switch widget in Kitkat (and older versions- the problem here is the thumb by default 'fits' inside the track). I have been working on this for quite some time now but I can't seem to arrive at the correct design.
I followed the solutions on this SO post: How to change the size of a Switch Widget.
Any suggestions or a solution would be most appreciated.
I added a transparent stroke to my track drawable shape which results in a padding around the track:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="#color/track_color"/>
<size android:height="#dimen/track_height" />
<size android:width="#dimen/track_width" />
<!-- results in the track looking smaller than the thumb -->
<stroke
android:width="6dp"
android:color="#00ffffff"/>
</shape>
Yup
I solved this
<android.support.v7.widget.SwitchCompat
android:id="#+id/mySwitch"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textOn="ON"
android:textOff="OFF"
style="#style/Color1SwitchStyle"
android:text="" />
This is My Color1SwitchStyle
<style name="Color1SwitchStyle">
<item name="android:thumb">#drawable/customswitchselector</item>
<item name="android:track">#drawable/my_custom_track</item>
//when use Switch in xml file
<item name="track">#drawable/my_custom_track</item>
//when use android.support.v7.widget.SwitchCompat in xml
</style>
*Hear is my customswitchselector.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<item android:state_checked="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/on" >
<shape
android:shape="rectangle"
android:dither="true"
android:useLevel="false"
android:visible="true">

Thanks stevenp without your comment i cannot solve this
Adding top and bottom inset in the 'track' drawable works for me. android:bottom="5dp" android:top="5dp"
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:bottom="5dp"
android:top="5dp">
<shape>
<corners android:radius="15dp" />
<solid android:color="#android:color/transparent" />
<stroke
android:width="2dp"
android:color="#EEEEEE" />
</shape>
</item>
<androidx.appcompat.widget.SwitchCompat
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:track="#drawable/switch_track_drawable" />
The solution I came up with is just to use for the track a shape that is a line instead of a rectangle, and set the width explicitly in its stroke.
For example if the switch is defined as follows:
<android.support.v7.widget.SwitchCompat
android:id="#+id/my_switch"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:track="#drawable/switch_track"
app:theme="#android:style/Theme.DeviceDefault.Light" />
The in the switch_track.xml drawable use a line shape with whatever width you desire:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<item android:state_checked="false" >
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:shape="line" >
<stroke android:color="#50bbb9bf" android:width="5dp"/>
</shape>
</item>
<item android:state_checked="true">
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:shape="line">
<stroke android:color="#5000b6de" android:width="5dp"/>
</shape>
</item>
</selector>
I want to have my switch widget larger and so I have to change the height of the switch.
But I have no solution to this.
I looked at this question: Change height of switch
And I made a drawable like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" android:width="0dp" android:height="30dp">
<solid android:color="#FF4444" />
</shape>
Then I setted my switch like this:
<Switch
android:id="#+id/sw_trackLiveData"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#+id/tv_liveData"
android:layout_alignRight="#+id/btn_stoptrip1"
android:layout_alignLeft="#+id/btn_stoptrip1"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:thumbTextPadding="25dp"
android:switchMinWidth="56dp"
android:track="#drawable/roundedbutton"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:textSize="20dp" />
But it doesnt work. I do something wrong. Can anyone give me an example how to do right? Or can anyone guide me through this?
Change your roundedButton.xml like that:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" >
<size
android:height="20dp"
android:width="56dp" />
<solid android:color="#FF4444" />
</shape>
Change your switch Selector to below in drawable (custom_selector.xml)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<item android:state_checked="true">
<shape
android:shape="rectangle"
android:visible="true"
android:dither="true"
android:useLevel="false">
<gradient
android:startColor="#color/colorAccent"
android:endColor="#color/colorAccent"
android:angle="270"/>
<corners
android:radius="20dp"/>
<size
android:width="37dp"
android:height="37dp" />
<stroke
android:width="4dp"
android:color="#0000ffff"/>
</shape>
</item>
<item android:state_checked="false">
<shape
android:shape="rectangle"
android:visible="true"
android:dither="true"
android:useLevel="false">
<gradient
android:startColor="#android:color/white"
android:endColor="#android:color/white"
android:angle="270"/>
<corners
android:radius="20dp"/>
<size
android:width="37dp"
android:height="37dp" />
<stroke
android:width="4dp"
android:color="#0000ffff"/>
</shape>
</item>
</selector>
and Create Track in drawable (custom_track.xml)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle"
android:visible="true"
android:dither="true"
android:useLevel="false">
<gradient
android:startColor="#color/card_background"
android:endColor="#color/card_background"
android:angle="270"/>
<corners
android:radius="20dp"/>
<size
android:width="50dp"
android:height="26dp" />
</shape>
And in Xml file :
<Switch
android:id="#+id/switch"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginRight="16dp"
android:textOff="OFF"
android:scaleX="2"
android:scaleY="2"
android:textOn="ON"
android:thumb="#drawable/customswitchselector"
android:track="#drawable/custom_track" />
just change
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
to
android:layout_width="200dp"
android:layout_height="100dp"
