How To Change the Text Color in Apple Notes

Apple Notes is one of the best ways to record your thoughts and reminders using an Apple device such as a Mac, iPhone, or iPad. You can write text-only notes or spice things up with photos and links. But can you change the text color?

Yes on the Mac, no to the other two devices. Read on to learn how it works.

How to Change the Text Color in Apple Notes on a Mac

On Mac, you have much more flexibility with the Notes app. It’s the only platform that lets you change the font color. Here’s how it’s done:

1. Open Notes on your Mac.
   
2. Load any note you want to edit.
   
3. Highlight the text you want to change.
   
4. Right-click on the text.
   
5. Go to Font.
   
6. Select Show Colors.
   
7. Use the Fonts window to change the text’s color.
   

And that’s all there is to it. You’re likely stuck with the Mac version until Apple adds this feature to the mobile apps.

Can the Text Color be Changed in the iPhone or iPad Notes App? Nope!

Many people have wondered when this will happen, but not even the latest beta updates have introduced font options on Apple Notes for iOS and iPadOS.

Therefore, the only way to have colored text on mobile is to view notes created with a Mac on a mobile device or use an alternative app. Other apps like Evernote let you change the color within the app.

Additional FAQs

Can you highlight text in Apple Notes?

Yes, you can highlight text on Apple Notes.

1. Open Apple Notes and go to any note.

2. Tap and hold on the text to highlight.

3. When the menu pops up, pick Highlight.

4. The text will now be highlighted yellow.

Unfortunately, Apple Notes doesn’t let you change the color of the highlight. You’re stuck with yellow.

We Need Change

Apple Notes does have some handy features that let you organize information conveniently, but you can only enjoy the full suite of features on a Mac. When using a mobile device, many functions are inaccessible. Fortunately, you can still change the text color on a Mac and view it on your iPhone.
