UISwitch to make text field appear

I am hoping to have a switch, that once the state is changed, a text field will appear for the user to input text.

This will be for an app that can lookup their location, but if they move the switch, they could then enter in an address instead.

There seem to people minimal resources on the UIswitch that involve something like that.

The UISwitch has a delegate method called "valueChanged" you could possibly use that. Based on whatever the value is, in that method, show or hide the textfield.
