Change Text Color of Items in UIActionSheet - iOS 8

There's an easy way if you still want to use UIActionSheet instead of UIAlertController in order to support older iOS versions.

UIActionSheet actually uses UIAlertController in iOS 8, and it has a private property _alertController.

SEL selector = NSSelectorFromString(@"_alertController");
if ([actionSheet respondsToSelector:selector])
{
    UIAlertController *alertController = [actionSheet valueForKey:@"_alertController"];
    if ([alertController isKindOfClass:[UIAlertController class]])
    {
        alertController.view.tintColor = [UIColor blueColor];
    }
}
else
{
    // use other methods for iOS 7 or older.
}

For Swift Below code should works

let alertAction = UIAlertAction(title: "XXX", style: .default) { (action) in

     }

    alertAction.setValue(UIColor.red, forKey: "titleTextColor")

To change the button title color you need to use UIAlertController and set the tintColor of the main view.

Example of setting the button title colors to black:

UIAlertController *actionSheetController = [UIAlertController alertControllerWithTitle:@"How would you like to proceed?" message:@"" preferredStyle:UIAlertControllerStyleActionSheet];

UIAlertAction *finish = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"Finish" style:UIAlertActionStyleDefault handler:^(UIAlertAction * action)
                               {
                                   [self performSelector:@selector(finish:) withObject:nil];
                               }];

UIAlertAction *playAgain = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"Play Again" style:UIAlertActionStyleDefault handler:^(UIAlertAction * action)
                            {
                                [self performSelector:@selector(playAgain:) withObject:nil];
                            }];

UIAlertAction *cancel = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"Cancel" style:UIAlertActionStyleCancel handler:^(UIAlertAction *action)
                         {
                             [actionSheetController dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
                         }];

[actionSheetController addAction:finish];
[actionSheetController addAction:playAgain];
[actionSheetController addAction:cancel];

//******** THIS IS THE IMPORTANT PART!!!  ***********
actionSheetController.view.tintColor = [UIColor blackColor];

[self presentViewController:actionSheetController animated:YES completion:nil];
