It would useful if we could see key pieces of information standing out. The ability to change text color or highlight text is a really needed feature for revision.

  Great suggestions! I believe this is something Brainscape developers are looking into but not a high priority at the moment. For now, I just use the bold and italics formatting options which has been good for me at the moment.

  Seria muito importante, uma vez que para quem tem memoria visual as corem ajudam a relembrar!!!

  hey! I figured out a work around for this. write whatever you want on Word/pages and add color to the text. Copy paste that on to the brainscape flashcard and then you have color font! Takes some extra steps but helpful for visual learners

  @Eve I've tried that but it doesn't seem to work

  @XYC Hey! So I tried it again and it does work but with some limitations. You 1) have to be on a Mac (not sure about PC/windows) 2) on Google Chrome 3) use the older version of Brainscape (in other words: do NOT select "convert to new format").

  You can also give a shot at using the source code. For example if you wanted to put the word "thank you" in red font you would type: <p><span style="color:#ff0000;">Thank you</span></p>

  You can get the different codes for the color here: https://htmlcolorcodes.com/.  In the above example #ff0000 is the html code for the color red.

  Honestly quite tedious and I hope brainscape quickly implements the ability to use color on flashcards or else I'll be switching to another service. The above tips might help as a temporary fix.

  Hope this helped!

  Just adding my voice to this. Colored cards and colored text would make such a huge difference for visual learners like myself.

  I agree this is a needed feature and honestly the workarounds are not workable especially if you don’t have a Mac.
