Example for a multiple lined UILabel that is set to display only 3 lines.

    let labelSize: CGSize = myLabel.text!.size(withAttributes: [.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 14, weight: .regular)])

    if labelSize.width > myLabel.intrinsicContentSize.width * 3 {
        // your label will truncate
    }

Though the user may select the return key adding an extra line without adding to the "text width" in that case something like this may also be useful.

func textView(_ textView: UITextView, shouldChangeTextIn range: NSRange, replacementText text: String) -> Bool {

    if text == "\n" {
        // return pressed 

    }
}
