Line break in UILabel?

I have this code:

UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(25, 25, 275, 40)];
label.text = @"I am learning Objective-C for the\n very first time!";
[self.view addSubview:label];

But for some reason it doesn't insert a new line... how do I put a line break in an UILabel?

Another solution compared to @JanB's one, you can insert an NSString object: @"\n" into the formatting string:

In your example:

label.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"I am learning Objective-C for the%@ very first time!", @"\n"];

Let me know if there is a problem :)

I tried all sorts of different solutions to get a newline in my UILabel.

\r will do the trick! For example:

NSString *detailInfo=[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Address:\r%@", self.aAddress.text];

Please check that 

   UILabel *yourLabel;
   yourLabel.numberoflines = 0

or not..

if it is not like this please set it to zero

UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(25, 25, 275, 40)];
label.text = @"I am learning Objective-C for the\n very first time!";
label.lineBreakMode = UILineBreakModeWordWrap;
label.numberOfLines = 0;

[self.view addSubview:label];`
