checkboxes

Clickable selection squares

Checkboxes is the plural of checkbox, a small square on a form or screen that can be marked to indicate selection.

Unlike radio buttons, checkboxes allow multiple selections: Check all boxes that apply.

The checked box has become a universal symbol for completion: I mentally checked all my boxes for the day.
