    How to write colorful on WhatsApp

    To write colorful on WhatsApp from your smartphone, you must first create a new status.

    If you are not sure about the features of this function, keep in mind that a WhatsApp status is nothing more than a personalized multimedia content with a duration limited to a few seconds. In addition, created statuses are only visible for 24 hours. After this period of time they are deleted.

    The WhatsApp statuses created can be composed of multimedia elements such as images, videos, GIFs or photos present in the media gallery of your device. In particular, videos can have a maximum duration of 30 seconds. In addition, before sharing images and videos, you can customize them by adding captions, writings, emojis and drawings.

    Following a recent update, WhatsApp has introduced the ability to write colored in a status, thus creating a status consisting only of a personalized text message. Once shared, all contacts in the address book can see the WhatsApp status; in case you do not want to have a public display of its content, it is possible to act through the settings of the messaging application.


    In the course of the following lines, I will explain how you can create this particular status that allows you to write with a colored font. I will also tell you about the other tools that you will have available for the realization of a colored writing.

    How to write colorful on WhatsApp

    To write a color status on WhatsApp you must first open the messaging app and go to the Status section in the menu at the bottom (symbol of a circle).

    At this point, in correspondence with the item My Status, you will find the camera symbol and thesymbol of a pencil. To create a status characterized by multimedia elements, you will have to tap the camera symbol, while to write only a text message in color on WhatsApp and send your message in a status, you will have to tap pencil symbol.


    Then the WhatsApp editor will open and, in correspondence with the entry Write your status, you can write your message. Note that in this mode, the background and the font of the message can be customized. To change the background color of the status, repeatedly tap the palette symbol until you find the background color that suits your tastes.

    To change the font of the written message, tap repeatedly on the T symbol. In this way, you will have the opportunity to display the typed text in a different font, thus being able to choose the one you prefer.

    Once you have finished customizing your message (you can also add emojis), just tap on the paper airplane symbol thatenters at the bottom right, to publish it. After a few seconds, your color status will be published in the Status section of WhatsApp where it will be visible to all your contacts (if you have left the default settings) for 24 hours.

    You can write in color on WhatsApp also by creating a multimedia type status, as there is the possibility to insert a text message in color in addition to the photo or video shared in the created status. To perform this action, go back to the WhatsApp Status section and create a new status, but in this case tap the button with the camera symbol. This will open the default camera of your smartphone: you can then choose to take a photo on the spot or upload an image from the media gallery of your device (accessible by swiping down).

    Once you have chosen the photo or video, you can write colorful by tapping on Symbol T that you find at the top. This will open your device's keyboard and you will be able to insert a personalized message that will appear overlaid on the media item. You can change the color of the message by simply tapping the color present in the vertical color palette located on the right.

    Alternatively, you can also create a handmade colored writing, using the button with the pencil symbol. This tool is designed to draw on photos (or videos) to include them in the WhatsApp status, but you can also use it to write a colorful personalized message. To choose the color it will be enough for you also in this case to consult the colors of the vertical color palette. Note, however, that using the latter two tools, you will not be able to change the font of the written text; you can only customize the color.

    Once you have finished writing on an image or video, you can send the multimedia content in the form of a status. To do this, simply press the paper airplane symbol located at the bottom right.

    Again, the multimedia status with a colored overlay will be online and visible, by default in the Status section of WhatsApp. The created status will be public for 24 hours, after which it will be automatically deleted.

    How to write colorful on WhatsApp

    The ability to write a colorful status is also available in the WhatsApp app for Android. In the following lines I will explain in detail how you should proceed.

    The first thing you need to do is go to the Status section of WhatsApp. At this point, the first method by which you can write in color on WhatsApp requires you to tap the button with a pencil symbol located at the bottom right.

    Doing this will open the WhatsApp status creation tool and you will be able to write a custom text message. In this particular section, the font and background color can also be aesthetically customized.

    In particular, to change the background color, repeatedly tap the palette symbol until you find the desired color. To change the message font, tap several times on the T symbol: you will be able to display the message in different styles and choose the one that best suits your taste. In this section what you will not be able to do is change the color of the text, which will always remain white.

    Once you have finished writing your message (you can also add emojis through the button with the smiley face symbol), confirm and send your status by touching the button in the shape of a paper airplane located at the bottom right. By default, the status will be visible for 24 hours to all your contacts in the messaging application.

    Would you like to write a colored text message that appears superimposed on a photo or video that you would like to share in a WhatsApp status? You'll be happy to know that it's possible. In the following lines I will explain step by step how to proceed.

    Go back to the WhatsApp Status section and, to create a multimedia type status, tap camera symbol located at the bottom right. The default camera of your device will open: this way you can take a picture on the spot or press and hold the circular button to make a short video. If, on the other hand, you slide your finger upwards, you can choose a photo to post directly from those in your device's media gallery.

    On this screen, you can type a message to overlay on the photo or video. To do this, simply tap the button with a T symbol. Using the keyboard of your Android device you can write a custom message and change the color of the message: simply tap the desired color in correspondence with the vertical color palette located on the right.

    Alternatively, by tapping the pencil-shaped button, you can use your finger to trace a handwritten inscription on the screen. In fact, this button is designed to allow you to draw and write on photos or videos shared as WhatsApp status. However, note that when writing a color message superimposed on a photo or video, you can only change the color of the text and not the font.

    Finished writing your message and would like to send your status? No problem: just tap the paper airplane symbol at the bottom right. Again, by default, the status made will be automatically shared with all your contacts in the messaging app.

    Finally, note that you can write a color overlay message (using the button with the T Symbol and the one with thepencil symbol), even sending a multimedia item attached in a WhatsApp chat.

    If you need more information on how to send WhatsApp messages, I recommend you read my guide dedicated to the subject. If, instead, you want to know more about WhatsApp statuses, I refer you to my tutorial dedicated to this feature.
