UITextView : Make a UIButton inline with UITextView text iOS

I have a UITextView in which there is UIButton at the bottom right corner. My UITextView allows multiline text, i.e The textView height dynamically increases on typing enter key (similar to SMS app). But my problem is that on typing text, the text goes behind the UIButton. I want the text to stop when it reaches image and continue in next line without any break in text. Is this possible?enter image description here

Try below code:

UIBezierPath* exclusionPath = [UIBezierPath bezierPathWithRect:Button.frame];
        self.textContainer.exclusionPaths  = @[exclusionPath];

Use UITextView Delegate and do something like,

- (void)textViewDidChange:(UITextView *)textView
{

    //Get Buttons Y position and Allow TextView Frame changes until it is less than or equal buttons Y position

    if (textView.frame.origin.y+textView.frame.size.height < Button.frame.origin.y) {

        CGFloat fixedWidth = textView.frame.size.width;
        CGSize newSize = [textView sizeThatFits:CGSizeMake(fixedWidth, MAXFLOAT)];
        CGRect newFrame = textView.frame;
        newFrame.size = CGSizeMake(fmaxf(newSize.width, fixedWidth), newSize.height);
        textView.frame = newFrame;
    }

}

Using the Text Kit Framework provided by apple. you can achieve this

Here is the ray wenderlich tut https://www.raywenderlich.com/50151/text-kit-tutorial

Specifically the part you have to do is set exclusionPaths for your UITextView

UIBezierPath* exclusionPath = [_timeView curvePathWithOrigin:myButton.center];
_textView.textContainer.exclusionPaths  = @[exclusionPath];
