iOS like toggle button using checkbox looks different for different browsers

Question

I am kinda new to web designing. Trying to create a toggle iOS like button but the issue is with its appearance on different browsers. It looks different in different browsers. As I tested it it works properly on Chrome.

Can somebody help me to make it look same on all browsers? Sorry for the broken english?

body {
  margin: 30px;
  text-align: center;
}
input[type=checkbox],
input[type=radio] {
  display: inline-block;
  width: 50px;
  height: 30px;
  position: relative;
  cursor: pointer;
  appearance: none;
  -webkit-appearance: none;

  border-radius: 15px;
  -webkit-border-radius: 15px;
  -moz-border-radius: 15px;

  transform: scale(1);
  -webkit-transform: scale(1);
  /*Adjust size here*/
  -moz-transform: scale(1);
  -o-transform: scale(1);
}
input[type=checkbox]:checked,
input[type=radio]:checked {

input[type="checkbox"]:checked:after,
input[type="radio"]:checked:after {
  left: 23px;
}
input[type=checkbox]:focus,
input[type=checkbox]:active,
input[type=radio]:focus,
input[type=radio]:active {
  outline: 0;
}

<h1>Checkbox :</h1> 
<input type="checkbox" />
<input type="checkbox" checked />

<h1>Radio :</h1>

<input type="radio" name="group" />
<input type="radio" name="group" checked />
<input type="radio" name="group" />

inputs aren't supposed to be able to add before and after psuedo-elements because they aren't containers (e.g. an <input> can't have child elements).

There is some more information in the comment here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/4660434/4338477

You could add labels to get the same effect though (this works in Firefox and IE9+):

http://jsfiddle.net/8okjwLxx/2/

<h1>Checkbox :</h1> 

<input id="checkbox1" type="checkbox" />
<label for="checkbox1"></label>
<input id="checkbox2" type="checkbox" checked />
<label for="checkbox2"></label>

<h1>Radio :</h1>

<input id="radio1" type="radio" name="group" />
<label for="radio1"></label>

<input id="radio2" type="radio" name="group" checked />
<label for="radio2"></label>

<input id="radio3" type="radio" name="group" />
<label for="radio3"></label>

body {
    margin: 30px;
    text-align: center;
}

input[type=checkbox],
input[type=radio]{
    display: none;
}

input[type=checkbox] + label,
input[type=radio] + label {
    display: inline-block;
    width: 50px;
    height: 30px;
    position: relative;
    cursor: pointer;
    appearance:         none;
    -webkit-appearance: none;
    -moz-appearance:    none;
    box-shadow:         inset 0px 5px 40px -13px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.75);
    -webkit-box-shadow: inset 0px 5px 40px -13px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.75);
    -moz-box-shadow:    inset 0px 5px 40px -13px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.75);
    -o-box-shadow:      inset 0px 5px 40px -13px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.75);
