Merging a label over an image, and saving as a new image?

I'm looking for a way to allow the user of my iPhone app to place labels on top of an image, and save the final result into a new image.

I've tried looking around, but so far I'm not 100% sure how should I start implementing this feature, or if this is the right approach to do something like that.

Thank you.

Use following snippet once ur code detects that User has entered the desired caption for an image:

AppDelegate* appDelegate = ( AppDelegate * ) [UIApplication sharedApplication].delegate;

UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(appDelegate.window.bounds.size);
[appDelegate.window.layer renderInContext:UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()];
UIImage *image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
NSData * data = UIImagePNGRepresentation(image);
// Save the data object to the the file.
