Similar answer to @marco-mustapic's, but without inheritance.

- (void)dismissAlert:(UIAlertView *)alertView
{
    [alertView dismissWithClickedButtonIndex:0 animated:YES];
}

- (void)showPopupWithTitle:(NSString *)title
                    mesage:(NSString *)message
              dismissAfter:(NSTimeInterval)interval
{
    UIAlertView *alertView = [[UIAlertView alloc]
           initWithTitle:title
                 message:message
                delegate:nil
        cancelButtonTitle:nil
        otherButtonTitles:nil
    ];
    [alertView show];
    [self performSelector:@selector(dismissAlert:)
               withObject:alertView
               afterDelay:interval
    ];
}

To use it:

[self showPopupWithTitle:@"Hi" message:@"I like pie" dismissAfter:2.0];

Throw it into a category on NSObject or something to always have it around.
