Answer 1

It is possible to use accent color, like

Text(.init("[Link Example](https://www.google.es/)"))
    .accentColor(.red)

Answer 2

You can achieve that with .tint(_:) as accentColor(_:) will soon be deprecated according to the documentation.

Text("[Link Example](https://www.google.es/)")
  .tint(Color.red)

The best way would be to use an AttributedString in Text, and define the foregroundColor on the range of the text where the link is added. Refer to this question – Justinn

Another solution using Link (iOS 14+):

if let url = URL(string: "https://www.google.es/" {
   Link(destination: url) {
      Text("Link Example")
         .foregroundColor(Color(.label))
   }
}

Link color is the default accent color of the app which is blue.

You can change this by setting a custom accent color:

1. Add a color set in your Assets.xcassets

2. In target -> Build settings, search for "Global Accent Color Name"

3. Double click on it and set the color name aded in step 1

Thats it..!
