Answer 1

Use NSTimer

NSTimer *timer = [NSTimer 
                      scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:(NSTimeInterval)(1.0)
                            target:self 
                             selector:@selector(blink) 
                             userInfo:nil 
                             repeats:TRUE];
BOOL blinkStatus = NO;

in your blink function

-(void)blink{
   if(blinkStatus == NO){
      yourLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
     blinkStatus = YES;
   }else {
      yourLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor grayColor];
      blinkStatus = NO;
   }
}
