Why UIButton doesn’t appear on the screen?

I create UIButton but it doesn’t appear on the screen.

In .h File :

@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UIButton * button;
@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UIImage * Image1;

In .m File :

_button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[_button addTarget:self action:@selector(_button1:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[_button setTitle:@"Show View" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
_button.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 437, 765);

_Image1 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"1.png"];
[_button setBackgroundImage:_Image1 forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[self.view addSubview: _button];

Why this button doesn’t work?

But this button work.

UIButton *button1;
button1 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[button1 addTarget:self action:@selector(swipeleft1:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[button1 setTitle:@"Show View" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
button1.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 437, 765);

UIImage *buttonImage1 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"1.png"];
[button1 setBackgroundImage:buttonImage1 forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[self.view addSubview:button1];

Define your properties this way:

@property (strong, nonatomic) UIButton * button;
@property (strong, nonatomic) UIImage * Image1;

Strong means your button and image will be retained, at the moment they are deallocated before you get a chance to add them to the screen.

IBOutlets can be weak as they are already retained by the view, however you're creating your button programmatically, not using interface builder.
