For a simple to use Swift solution, you might want to checkout HandyUIKit. After importing it into your project (e.g. via Carthage – see instructions in README) you can do something like this:

import HandyUIKit

"57^{%}".superscripted(font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 20, weight: .medium))

This line will return an NSAttributedString which will look exactly like what you're looking for. Just assign it to a UILabels attributedText property and that's it!

If you're looking for subscripting a text, simply use subscripted(font:) instead. It will recognize structures like CO_{2}. There's also superAndSubscripted(font:) if you want to combine both.

See the docs for more information and additional examples.
