create ios7 button on prior versions

Question

Is it possible to create button to be like one in ios 7 on prior versions of ios ? I want my button just to show text, and not to be white rectangle or blue when selected.

Answer 1

try this ...

UIButton * btn = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];

[btn setTitle:@"text" forState:UIControlStateNormal]

Answer 2

If you are using Interface builder then just drag a button in to the view and in the Attributes inspector select type as custom and just add the required text in the placeholder. Else if you are creating buttons programatically then

UIButton *buttonName = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[buttonName setTitle:@"Some Text" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
