Text Color

suggest change

You can use the label’s textColor property to apply a text color to the entire text of the label.

Swift

label.textColor = UIColor.redColor()
label.textColor = UIColor(red: 64.0/255.0, green: 88.0/255.0, blue: 41.0/225.0, alpha: 1)

Swift 3

label.textColor = UIColor.red
label.textColor = UIColor(red: 64.0/255.0, green: 88.0/255.0, blue: 41.0/225.0, alpha: 1)

Objective-C

label.textColor = [UIColor redColor];
label.textColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:64.0f/255.0f green:88.0f/255.0f blue:41.0f/255.0f alpha:1.0f];

Applying text color to a portion of the text

You can also vary the text color (or other attributes) of portions of the text by using NSAttributedString:

Objective-C

attributedString = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString:@"The grass is green; the sky is blue."];
[attributedString addAttribute: NSForegroundColorAttributeName value:[UIColor greenColor] range:NSMakeRange(13, 5)];
[attributedString addAttribute: NSForegroundColorAttributeName value:[UIColor blueColor] range:NSMakeRange(31, 4)];
label.attributedText = attributesString;

Swift

let attributedString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: "The grass is green; the sky is blue.")
attributedString.addAttribute(NSForegroundColorAttributeName, value: UIColor.green(), range: NSRange(location: 13, length: 5))
attributedString.addAttribute(NSForegroundColorAttributeName, value: UIColor.blue(), range: NSRange(location: 31, length: 4))
label.attributedText = attributedString
