Question

I am trying to make a UILabel a link for a UIWebView. How can I make a UILabel to work as hyperlink?

You can go for UITapGestureRecognizer, that will work something similar that you want –

UILabel *myLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:];//Define label here as per needs
myLabel.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
UITapGestureRecognizer *gr = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(myAction:)];
[myLabel addGestureRecognizer:gr];
gr.numberOfTapsRequired = 1;
gr.cancelsTouchesInView = NO;
[self.view addSubview:myLabel];

Now for action –

- (void) myAction: (UITapGestureRecognizer *) gr {
    // Define actions here
}
