How to set the title text color of UIButton?

I tried changing the colors of the text for a button, but it's still staying white.

isbeauty = UIButton()
isbeauty.setTitle("Buy", forState: UIControlState.Normal)
isbeauty.titleLabel?.textColor = UIColorFromRGB("F21B3F")
isbeauty.titleLabel!.font = UIFont(name: "AppleSDGothicNeo-Thin" , size: 25)
isbeauty.backgroundColor = UIColor.clearColor()
isbeauty.layer.cornerRadius = 5
isbeauty.layer.borderWidth = 1
isbeauty.layer.borderColor = UIColorFromRGB("F21B3F").CGColor
isbeauty.frame = CGRectMake(300, 134, 55, 26)
isbeauty.addTarget(self,action: "first:", forControlEvents: UIControlEvents.TouchUpInside)
self.view.addSubview(isbeauty)

I also tried changing it the red, black, blue, but nothing is happening.

You have to use func setTitleColor(_ color: UIColor?, for state: UIControl.State) the same way you set the actual title text. Docs

isbeauty.setTitleColor(UIColorFromRGB("F21B3F"), for: .normal)

Swift UI solution

Button(action: {}) {
            Text("Button")
        }.foregroundColor(Color(red: 1.0, green: 0.0, blue: 0.0))

Swift 3, Swift 4, Swift 5

to improve comments. This should work:

button.setTitleColor(.red, for: .normal)

Example in setting button title color

btnDone.setTitleColor(.black, for: .normal)

This is swift 5 compatible answer. If you want to use one of the built-in colours then you can simply use

button.setTitleColor(.red, for: .normal)

If you want some custom colours, then create an extension for a UIColor as below first.

import UIKit
extension UIColor {
    static var themeMoreButton = UIColor.init(red: 53/255, green: 150/255, blue: 36/255, alpha: 1)
}

Then use it for your button as below.

button.setTitleColor(UIColor.themeMoreButton, for: .normal)

Tip: You can use this method to store custom colours from rgba colour code and reuse it throughout your application.

> func setTitleColor(_ color: UIColor?, > for state: UIControl.State)

Parameters:

> color:
The color of the title to use for the specified state. > > state:
The state that uses the specified color. The possible values are described in UIControl.State.

Sample:

let MyButton = UIButton()
MyButton.setTitle("Click Me..!", for: .normal)
MyButton.setTitleColor(.green, for: .normal)

referring to radio buttons ,you can also do it with Segmented Control as following:

step 1: drag a segmented control to your view in the attribute inspector change the title of the two segments ,for example "Male" and "Female"

step 2: create an outlet & an action for it in the code

step 3: create a variable for future use to contain choice's data

in the code do as following:

@IBOutlet weak var genderSeg: UISegmentedControl!

var genderPick : String = ""


 @IBAction func segAction(_ sender: Any) {
    
    if genderSeg.selectedSegmentIndex == 0 {
         genderPick = "Male"
        print(genderPick)
    } else if genderSeg.selectedSegmentIndex == 1 {
        genderPick = "Female"
          print(genderPick)
    }
}

set title color

btnGere.setTitleColor(#colorLiteral(red: 0, green: 0, blue: 0, alpha: 1), for: .normal)

You can set UIButton title color with hex code

btn.setTitleColor(UIColor(hexString: "#95469F"), for: .normal)

if you are using a button without NSAttribute then you can simply set the title and color of button by using

yourButtonName.setTitle("Your Title", for: .normal)

enterCustomAmount.setTitleColor(.gray, for: .normal)

but if you give NSAttribute in your button property then you first need to set the attribute for the button

var myAttribute = [ NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor: UIColor.init(hexString: "#FFAEA9")]

or for more then one property you can use comma separator like

var myAttribute = [ NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor: UIColor.init(hexString: "#FFAEA9"), NSAttributedString.Key.font: UIFont(name: "Dubai-Medium", size: 16) ]

and assign it to your UIButton like this

 let myString = "Your title"
            let text = NSAttributedString(string: myString, attributes: myAttribute)
            enterCustomAmount.setAttributedTitle(text, for: .normal)
