iOS: set font size of UILabel Programmatically

Objective-C:

[label setFont: [label.font fontWithSize: sizeYouWant]];

Swift:

label.font = label.font.fontWithSize(sizeYouWant)

just changes font size of a UILabel.

Try [UIFont systemFontOfSize:36] or [UIFont fontWithName:@"HelveticaNeue" size:36] i.e. [[self titleLabel] setFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:36]];
