I wanna have a new label with custom value every time the user hits the button

Hi I wanna have a new label with custom value every time the user hits the button so for example: I have a (text box) when the user hits the button (add) there will be a new label under the (text box) with the value that the user entered ,,

I was working on a solution but I seemed to have some problems , my solution was to have a big label and every time the user hits the button I'll get to a new line then write the new value but I had some troubles with that ! so can any one please give me a way to do that ?!

here is how I tested my idea (label called label and the text called text)the names are different from here but it has the same idea label = "\n (text)"

You'll probably have to make a scrollview, increase the content size's height and keep adding labels there.

I had this idea before but my problem is how to keep adding the labels -> I'm a beginner

Something like this(I don't have that much swift experience,so I'll go with objC):

//Calculate the upper right coordinate before hand

UIlabel *label=[[UIlabel alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(newCoord.x,newCoord.y,width,height];
[scrollView addSubview:label];
