How to left align text in swift UI?

Question

I am trying to align left text in Text component in Swift UI.

As you can see on above image I applied with below code but does not work. Anything missing?

Text(titleSring).frame(alignment: .trailing).background(Color.red)

you are giving align to text... so it is already in center. if you want whole red part(label) in center you need to give Alignment to HStack — Noor Ahmed Natali

A frame alignment is for entire view (which is square), you need multi-line text alignment, like

Text(titleSring)
    .multilineTextAlignment(.leading)

Add a Spacer in a HStack instead like this

HStack {
          Text(title)
              .font(.subheadline)
              .bold()
          Spacer()
        }
