iPhone Bold Italic English Text

What Is Bold Italic Text?

Bold italic text combines two typographic styles: bold for emphasis and italic for stylistic flair. On iPhone, you can apply this combination in apps that support rich text formatting—like Notes, Pages, or third-party editors.

How to Use It on iPhone

While the native Messages or Safari address bar don’t support rich text, many writing and note-taking apps do:

• Open the Notes app and start a new note.
• Select your text, tap the (Aa) formatting button.
• Enable both Bold and Italic.

Design Inspiration

Use bold italic English text to highlight quotes, key phrases, or creative headings. It adds personality while maintaining readability.

Example in a journal entry:
“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.” – Eleanor Roosevelt
