# badgeTextAttributes

String attributes to apply to the text of the item’s badge.

## Declaration

```swift

```

## Discussion

Discussion If you don’t specify font or color attributes for the text, UIKit supplies appropriate default values. For a list of possible keys, see NSAttributedString.Key.
