 "camSave" = "To complete onboarding:\n1. Tap Save and disconnect to disconnect from the camera.\n2. Connect to the internet.\n3. Log in to Cloud.";

You can actually use HTML tags with NSAttributedString. This is what I used:

static func convertFromHTMLString(_ input: String?) -> NSAttributedString? {
    guard let input = input else { return nil }

    guard let data = input.data(using: String.Encoding.unicode, allowLossyConversion: true) else { return nil  }
    return try? NSAttributedString(data: data, options: [NSAttributedString.DocumentReadingOptionKey.documentType : NSAttributedString.DocumentType.html], documentAttributes: nil)
}

So I convert an input string to raw data using UTF8 format. Then I use a constructor of attributed string with data using appropriate flags NSAttributedString.DocumentReadingOptionKey.documentType : NSAttributedString.DocumentType.html.
