How to Add a Text Box in Notion

Quick summary

Notion does not have a native text box tool, but you can simulate one using the Callout block to visually separate and style text on any Notion page.

Steps

1. On your Notion page, click where you want to add the text.
2. Note that Notion has no built-in text box tool like Google Docs or Canva.
3. Type /callout and select Callout from the block menu to simulate a text box.
4. Type your content inside the Callout block just like a regular textbox.
5. Click the callout icon, hover over Color, and change the text color or background color to make your textbox stand out.
