how to change text color in table in app?

I just went to change the color of a piece of text on mobile (inside of a text field in a table database) and can’t figure out how to do so. when I highlight text in the body of the page, I get the A icon that leads to the color menu, but it’s not in the table options. this is an accessible feature in the desktop app — not just from cmd-shift-H, but also from right clicking. has it always been like this in the app? is my app bugging out for some reason?
