How to find actual number of lines of UILabel?

None of these worked for me. Below one did,

Swift 4.2:

extension UILabel {
    func calculateMaxLines() -> Int {
        let maxSize = CGSize(width: frame.size.width, height: CGFloat(Float.infinity))
        let charSize = font.lineHeight
        let text = (self.text ?? "") as NSString
        let textSize = text.boundingRect(with: maxSize, options: .usesLineFragmentOrigin, attributes: [NSAttributedString.Key.font: font], context: nil)
        let linesRoundedUp = Int(ceil(textSize.height/charSize)) 
        return linesRoundedUp
    }    
}

Swift 4/4.1:

extension UILabel {

    func calculateMaxLines() -> Int {
        let maxSize = CGSize(width: frame.size.width, height: CGFloat(Float.infinity))
        let charSize = font.lineHeight
        let text = (self.text ?? "") as NSString
        let textSize = text.boundingRect(with: maxSize, options: .usesLineFragmentOrigin, attributes: [.font: font], context: nil)
        let linesRoundedUp = Int(ceil(textSize.height/charSize)) 
        return linesRoundedUp
    }

}

Swift 3:

extension UILabel {

    func calculateMaxLines() -> Int {
        let maxSize = CGSize(width: frame.size.width, height: CGFloat(Float.infinity))
        let charSize = font.lineHeight
        let text = (self.text ?? "") as NSString
        let textSize = text.boundingRect(with: maxSize, options: .usesLineFragmentOrigin, attributes: [NSFontAttributeName: font], context: nil)
        let linesRoundedUp = Int(ceil(textSize.height/charSize)) 
        return linesRoundedUp
    }

}

Swift 5 (IOS 12.2)

Get max number of lines required for a label to render the text without truncation.

extension UILabel {
    var maxNumberOfLines: Int {
        let maxSize = CGSize(width: frame.size.width, height: CGFloat(MAXFLOAT))
        let text = (self.text ?? "") as NSString
        let textHeight = text.boundingRect(with: maxSize, options: .usesLineFragmentOrigin, attributes: [.font: font], context: nil).height
        let lineHeight = font.lineHeight
        return Int(ceil(textHeight / lineHeight))
    }
}

Get max number of lines can be displayed in a label with constrained bounds. Use this property after assigning text to label.

extension UILabel {
    var numberOfVisibleLines: Int {
        let maxSize = CGSize(width: frame.size.width, height: CGFloat(MAXFLOAT))
        let textHeight = sizeThatFits(maxSize).height
        let lineHeight = font.lineHeight
        return Int(ceil(textHeight / lineHeight))
    }
}

Usage

print(yourLabel.maxNumberOfLines)
print(yourLabel.numberOfVisibleLines)

Firstly set text in UILabel

First Option :

Firstly calculate height for text according to font :

NSInteger lineCount = 0;
CGSize labelSize = (CGSize){yourLabel.frame.size.width, MAXFLOAT};
CGRect requiredSize = [self boundingRectWithSize:labelSize  options:NSStringDrawingUsesLineFragmentOrigin attributes:@{NSFontAttributeName: yourLabel.font} context:nil];

Now calculate number of lines :

int charSize = lroundf(yourLabel.font.lineHeight);
int rHeight = lroundf(requiredSize.height);
lineCount = rHeight/charSize;
NSLog(@"No of lines: %i",lineCount);

Second Option :

 NSInteger lineCount = 0;
 CGSize textSize = CGSizeMake(yourLabel.frame.size.width, MAXFLOAT);
 int rHeight = lroundf([yourLabel sizeThatFits:textSize].height);
 int charSize = lroundf(yourLabel.font.lineHeight);
 lineCount = rHeight/charSize;
 NSLog(@"No of lines: %i",lineCount);
