Please use Tap Gesture to achieve your describe functionality.

• add Tap Gesture in your TextView using underneath code.

  UITapGestureRecognizer* tapGestureObj = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc]initWithTarget:self action:@selector(TapMethod:)];
  tapGestureObj.numberOfTapsRequired = 2;
  [textViewObj addGestureRecognizer:tapGestureObj];
  

• TapMethod

  -(void)TapMethod:(UITapGestureRecognizer*)gesture
  {
     //Set your logic on double tap of TextView...
  }
