Just set the placeHolder text as "username" and it will be displayed in grey color then set the textColor of your textField as black color so when you will begin editing you will edit with blackcolor

I think you're approaching it the wrong way. From what I read i think that you need to go with "placeholder" text.
Open your xcode project, go to your .xib or .storyboard file, click on your UITextField and input 'username' on the Placeholder textfield, like the following image:
enter image description here


The placeholder text is a gray text that is displayed when your UITextField is empty.

Use the placeholder property of UITextField for the grayed text that will be replaced with whatever user types in.
