Which is better radio buttons or checkboxes?
When should you use radio buttons or checkboxes? This relies entirely on what question you are asking. If you want your users to select multiple options, use checkboxes. If you want your users to select only one option, use radio buttons (or another alternative).
What is the difference between a radio button and a checkbox?
Checkboxes and radio buttons are elements for making selections. Checkboxes allow the user to choose items from a fixed number of alternatives, while radio buttons allow the user to choose exactly one item from a list of several predefined alternatives.
Why would you choose a radio button instead of a checkbox?
For example, you should use radio buttons when you want the user to be able to select only one option from the available choices. In contrast, if you're giving multiple selection choices to your users, you should use the checkboxes field.
