There is a solution without subclassing on iOS11. Just need to set one additional constraint in code to match height of button and button.titleLabel.

ObjC:

// In init or overriden updateConstraints method
NSLayoutConstraint *constraint = [NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:self.button
                                                              attribute:NSLayoutAttributeHeight
                                                              relatedBy:NSLayoutRelationEqual
                                                                 toItem:self.button.titleLabel
                                                              attribute:NSLayoutAttributeHeight
                                                             multiplier:1
                                                               constant:0];

[self addConstraint:constraint];

And in some cases (as said before):

- (void)layoutSubviews {
    [super layoutSubviews];

    self.button.titleLabel.preferredMaxLayoutWidth = CGRectGetWidth(self.button.titleLabel.frame);
}

Swift:

let constraint = NSLayoutConstraint(item: button,
                                    attribute: .height,
                                    relatedBy: .equal,
                                    toItem: button.titleLabel,
                                    attribute: .height,
                                    multiplier: 1,
                                    constant: 0)

self.addConstraint(constraint)

+

override func layoutSubviews() {
    super.layoutSubviews()

    button.titleLabel.preferredMaxLayoutWidth = button.titleLabel.frame.width
}
