UIImage is not a subview of UIView, so you cant add a subview to it. Also NSString is not a subview of UIView. If you want to show things on the screen, they should inherit from UIView.

So try this:

Create a UIImageView - set its image property to be your UIImage instance.

Create a UILabel - set its text property to your NSString.

Add the UILabel as a subview of your UIImageView.

and finally add your UIImageView to your current view controllers view.
