For ios > 7.1 just set textAligment property to NSTextAlignmentJustified , without any third-part libraries:

UILabel *label = [UILabel alloc] init];
label.textAligment = NSTextAlignmentJustified;

UITextView and UILabel they dont provide such alignment. You can use UIWebview instead.

You can use <p style="text-align:justify">Your text goes here.</p>

This might be helpful.

Use TTTAttributedLabel NSAtributedString label which has UITextAlignmentJustify

 yourTTTAttributedLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentJustify;

Also another alternative is use OHAttributedLabel NSAtributedString label which has UITextAlignmentJustify

 yourOHAttributedLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentJustify;
