Try to use this one.But UITextField doesn't provide any option to make it multi-lined text box. So you have to go with UITextView.

- (BOOL)textView:(UITextView *)textView shouldChangeTextInRange:(NSRange)range replacementText:(NSString *)text
{
    CGSize size = [txtView.text sizeWithFont:txtView.font];
    CGRect f = txtView.frame;
    f.size.height = ceil(size.width/f.size.width)*size.height;
    txtView.frame = f;
}

And for more info..

Otherwise if you don't wanna make in next line then use this code.

- (BOOL)textField:(UITextField *)textField shouldChangeCharactersInRange:(NSRange)range replacementString:(NSString *)string
{

    CGSize boundingSize = CGSizeMake(320, CGFLOAT_MAX);
    CGSize requiredSize = [textField.text sizeWithFont:[UIFont fontWithName:@"Helvetica" size:20.0f] constrainedToSize:boundingSize
                                         lineBreakMode:NSLineBreakByWordWrapping];
    CGFloat requiredHeight = requiredSize.height;

    CGRect frame1;
    frame1 = txtFld.frame;
    frame1.size.height = requiredHeight;
    txtFld.frame = frame1;
    NSLog(@"%f", frame1.size.height);
    return YES;
}

if you dont want to change the width then you can restrict it by textField.frame.size.width

property.

that means after extending to some width ,restrict to input

I faced the same problem too. I had to set the left and right constraint of my text field and its adjacent uilabel to ensure my text field doesn't resize itself after entering large amount of text. This is a issue with Autolayout. Tried all the above solutions, can't be fixed by above solutions.
