iMessage Text Bolding Trick

[nerdslife_team]

Hey everyone, you know how sometimes you want to make certain parts of your texts stand out? Well, while iMessage doesn’t let you directly format text within the message body, there’s a neat trick using the ‘Subject’ field that lets you bold text! Keep in mind, this only works for iMessages, not regular SMS and it only bolds text in the subject, not the main body.

Still, this little trick can be handy in many situations when you want to draw attention to something. So, here’s how to do it:

Enable the ‘Subject’ Field in Settings

First things first, we need to turn on the ‘Subject’ field within the settings of your device. It’s a simple process, just follow along:

1. Start by opening the ‘Settings’ app from your home screen or app library.
   

   

2. Then, find and tap ‘Messages’ in the Settings list.
   

   

3. Now scroll down until you see the ‘Show Subject Field’ option under the ‘SMS/MMS’ area. Turn the switch to the ‘On’ position.
   

   

4. Next, go back to your home screen and launch the ‘Messages’ app.
   

   

5. Open a chat with someone you know uses iMessage; standard SMS won’t work here.

6. You’ll now see the ‘Subject’ field in the message input box. Whatever you type into this field will appear in bold text.

And that’s it! It’s a straightforward method, and now you can highlight the important bits of your message using bold formatting.
