# Slider

A control for selecting a value from a continuous or stepped range.
Android, iOS, Web, Included in Expo Go

> For the complete documentation index, see [llms.txt](/llms.txt). Use this file to discover all available pages.

A controlled slider for selecting a numeric value within a range. Pair [`value`](/versions/v56.0.0/sdk/ui/universal/slider#value) with [`onValueChange`](/versions/v56.0.0/sdk/ui/universal/slider#onvaluechange) to manage state from React.

## Installation

```sh
npx expo install @expo/ui
```

If you are installing this in an [existing React Native app](/bare/overview), make sure to [install `expo`](/bare/installing-expo-modules) in your project.

## Usage

### Continuous slider

The default range is `[0, 1]`.

```tsx
import { useState } from 'react';
import { Host, Slider } from '@expo/ui';

export default function ContinuousSliderExample() {
  const [value, setValue] = useState(0.5);

  return (
    <Host style={{ flex: 1 }}>
      <Slider value={value} onValueChange={setValue} />
    </Host>
  );
}
```

### Stepped slider with custom range

Use `min`, `max`, and `step` to constrain the values produced by the slider.

```tsx
import { useState } from 'react';
import { Host, Column, Slider, Text } from '@expo/ui';

export default function SteppedSliderExample() {
  const [volume, setVolume] = useState(50);

  return (
    <Host style={{ flex: 1 }}>
      <Column spacing={8}>
        <Text>Volume: {volume}</Text>
        <Slider value={volume} onValueChange={setVolume} min={0} max={100} step={10} />
      </Column>
    </Host>
  );
}
```
