# Customize the Default UI for iOS

The UI SDK automatically brands the app with a default color scheme, provides icons for all UI elements, and uses default text for all UI labels. However, you can customize these elements with the UI SDK.


This article applies to the following implementations:

| UI SDK | Core SDK |
| :----: | :------: |
|   ✅   |          |


- To customize the color scheme in your app, create color sets in your Assets catalog using the SDK's token names. To learn more, see [Customize Colors for iOS](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/service/messaging-in-app/guide/ios-colors.md).
- To customize any UI text, create a localizable resource file in your app and override the string values. To learn more, see [Customize Strings for iOS](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/service/messaging-in-app/guide/ios-strings.md).
- To customize the icons and images used throughout the SDK, add an asset to your project's Assets catalog using the associated keyword. To learn more, see [Customize Icons for iOS](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/service/messaging-in-app/guide/ios-icons.md).

To learn how to start using the UI SDK, see [Build a UI SDK App for iOS](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/service/messaging-in-app/guide/ios-ui-sdk.md).
