Coloring Notebook Titles and Tags

[kshivner 1]

I saw in a Youtube video that there were colored titles on notebooks like the inbox and colored tags. How can you do that? If this is a feature that was removed, PLEASE add it back.

Best I know we've never been able to do this...  You can include special characters and emojis to liven things up,  but that's about it...

That must have been an old video (check the date on it). Coloring was (and remains) a feature of the Legacy Evernote app on Windows (v. 6).

However, the color-coding remained only on the local device where it was created; it never synced to other devices, even other Windows computers. It disappeared in the new version, and I don't expect it back.  (We are other users here, not Evernote staff, and, sadly, have no power to add anything back.) FWIW, there have been several discussions of this previously, and one suggestion is to use an emoji at the beginning of the notebook title--see several posts in this thread:
