Instead of a photo or video, I was wondering how to do the same thing, but with just a text message?

Would it be something like 'self.textMessage.label'? Or 'textMessage.text'? A person enters a small line of test into a UITextField and before he or she submits enters reviews it on a UIlabel.Will it work if I just write it as textMessage.text? Or the former?

Could you please elaborate on what "the same thing" is? Thanks!

Hi,

Sorry for the late response. What I meant is how to do the same app, with, instead of photos, a line (or string) of text from a textfield? Hope that clarifies.
