Customize Bootstrap checkboxes

I'm using Bootstrap in my Angular application and all other styles are working like they should, but checkbox style doesn't. It just look like plain old checkbox.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css" integrity="sha384-BVYiiSIFeK1dGmJRAkycuHAHRg32OmUcww7on3RYdg4Va+PmSTsz/K68vbdEjh4u" crossorigin="anonymous">
<div class="container">
  <form class="form-signin">
    <h2 class="form-signin-heading">Please log in</h2>
    <label for="inputEmail" class="sr-only">User name</label>
    <input [(ngModel)]="loginUser.Username" type="username" name="username" id="inputEmail" class="form-control" placeholder="User name" required autofocus>
    <label for="inputPassword" class="sr-only">Password</label>
    <input [(ngModel)]="loginUser.Password" type="password" name="password" id="inputPassword" class="form-control" placeholder="Password" required>
    <a *ngIf="register == false" (click)="registerState()">Register</a>
    <div class="checkbox">
      <label>
         <input type="checkbox" [(ngModel)]="rememberMe" name="rememberme"> Remember me
         </label>
    </div>
    <button *ngIf="register == false" (click)="login()" class="btn btn-lg btn-primary btn-block" type="submit">Log in</button>
  </form>
</div>

What it looks like:

Here you have an example styling checkboxes and radios using Font Awesome 5 free[

  /*General style*/
  .custom-checkbox label, .custom-radio label {
    position: relative;
    cursor: pointer;
    color: #666;
    font-size: 30px;
  }
 .custom-checkbox input[type="checkbox"] ,.custom-radio input[type="radio"] {
    position: absolute;
    right: 9000px;
  }
   /*Custom checkboxes style*/
  .custom-checkbox input[type="checkbox"]+.label-text:before {
    content: "\f0c8";
    font-family: "Font Awesome 5 Pro";
    speak: none;
    font-style: normal;
    font-weight: normal;
    font-variant: normal;
    text-transform: none;
    line-height: 1;
    -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
    width: 1em;
    display: inline-block;
    margin-right: 5px;
  }
  .custom-checkbox input[type="checkbox"]:checked+.label-text:before {
    content: "\f14a";
    color: #2980b9;
    animation: effect 250ms ease-in;
  }
  .custom-checkbox input[type="checkbox"]:disabled+.label-text {
    color: #aaa;
  }
  .custom-checkbox input[type="checkbox"]:disabled+.label-text:before {
    content: "\f0c8";
    color: #ccc;
  }

   /*Custom checkboxes style*/
  .custom-radio input[type="radio"]+.label-text:before {
    content: "\f111";
    font-family: "Font Awesome 5 Pro";
    speak: none;
    font-style: normal;
    font-weight: normal;
    font-variant: normal;
    text-transform: none;
    line-height: 1;
    -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
    width: 1em;
    display: inline-block;
    margin-right: 5px;
  }

  .custom-radio input[type="radio"]:checked+.label-text:before {
    content: "\f192";
    color: #8e44ad;
    animation: effect 250ms ease-in;
  }

  .custom-radio input[type="radio"]:disabled+.label-text {
    color: #aaa;
  }

  .custom-radio input[type="radio"]:disabled+.label-text:before {
    content: "\f111";
    color: #ccc;
  }

  @keyframes effect {
    0% {
      transform: scale(0);
    }
    25% {
      transform: scale(1.3);
    }
    75% {
      transform: scale(1.4);
    }
    100% {
      transform: scale(1);
    }
  }

For bootstrap 5, if the switch/checkbox is not styled, add appearance in your css file.

For example:

.form-switch, .form-check {    
    .form-check-input {
        -webkit-appearance: none;
        -moz-appearance: none;
    }
}
