Apple Notes is one of the best ways to record your thoughts and reminders using an Apple device like 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 Mac, no on the other two devices. Read on to find out 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 is the only platform that allows you to change the font color. This is how you do it:
- Open Grades on your Mac.

- Upload any notes you want to edit.

- Highlight the text you want to change.

- Right click on the text.

- Gonna Fountain.

- Select Show colors.

- Use the Fonts window to change the color of the text.

And that’s it. You’ll probably be stuck with the Mac version until Apple adds this feature to mobile apps.
Can you change the text color in the iPhone or iPad Notes app? No!
Many people have wondered when this will happen, but not even the latest beta updates have introduced font options in 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 applications like Evernote allows you to change the color within the application.

Apple Notes has some useful features that let you organize information conveniently, but you can only enjoy the full feature set on a Mac. When using a mobile device, many features become inaccessible. Fortunately, you can still change the text color on a Mac and view it on your iPhone.
