use UITextField extension

    extension UITextField {
        func updatePlaceHolder(_ text: String, color: UIColor) {
            attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(string: text,
                                                       attributes: [NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor: color])
        }
    }
//color set for textfield placeholder 
textFieldNumber.updatePlaceHolder("Mobile Number", color: UIColor.init(red: 0, green: 0, blue: 0.0980392, alpha: 0.22))
