- You need to ask the user when they log in (when the app loads) if they want english or spanish you could pop it in the viewDidLoad method as a UI Alert i.e.
UIAlertView * alert =[[UIAlertView alloc ] initWithTitle:@"Welcome to my App" message:@"Choose your language" delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:@"English" otherButtonTitles: nil]; [alert addButtonWithTitle:@"Spanish"]; [alert show];
Let them select which ever one they want
- (void)alertView:(UIAlertView *)alertView didDismissWithButtonIndex:(NSInteger)buttonIndex
{
if (buttonIndex == 1) {
self.LogOutButton.text=@"English"; //sets it as English
}
else{
self.LogOutButton.text=@"Salida"; //sets it as Spanish
}
Without seeing your code its hard to comment but that above is the line of thinking I would go down to get it working. Also note this is a global approach you could use this to modify the language across the class not just for one button
