Answer 1

we can show multiple line in MKAnnotation view With the help of auto layout

it's very simple.

in objective c

 - (MKAnnotationView *) mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView viewForAnnotation:(id)annotation {

        if ([annotation isKindOfClass:[MKUserLocation class]])
            return nil;
        if ([annotation isKindOfClass:[CustomAnnotation class]]) {
            CustomAnnotation *customAnnotation = (CustomAnnotation *) annotation;

            MKAnnotationView *annotationView = [mapView dequeueReusableAnnotationViewWithIdentifier:@"CustomAnnotation"];

            if (annotationView == nil)
                annotationView = customAnnotation.annotationView;
            else
                annotationView.annotation = annotation;

            //Adding multiline subtitle code 

            UILabel *subTitlelbl = [[UILabel alloc]init];
            subTitlelbl.text = @"sri ganganagar this is my home twon.sri ganganagar this is my home twon.sri ganganagar this is my home twon.  ";

            annotationView.detailCalloutAccessoryView = subTitlelbl;

            NSLayoutConstraint *width = [NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:subTitlelbl attribute:NSLayoutAttributeWidth relatedBy:NSLayoutRelationLessThanOrEqual toItem:nil attribute:NSLayoutAttributeNotAnAttribute multiplier:1 constant:150];

             NSLayoutConstraint *height = [NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:subTitlelbl attribute:NSLayoutAttributeHeight relatedBy:NSLayoutRelationGreaterThanOrEqual toItem:nil attribute:NSLayoutAttributeNotAnAttribute multiplier:1 constant:0];
            [subTitlelbl setNumberOfLines:0];
            [subTitlelbl addConstraint:width];
            [subTitlelbl addConstraint:height];




            return annotationView;
        } else
            return nil;
    }

output

For Swift

func mapView(mapView: MKMapView, viewForAnnotation annotation: MKAnnotation) -> MKAnnotationView? {

        let identifier = "MyPin"

        if annotation.isKindOfClass(MKUserLocation) {
            return nil
        }

        var annotationView: MKPinAnnotationView? = mapView.dequeueReusableAnnotationViewWithIdentifier(identifier) as? MKPinAnnotationView

        if annotationView == nil {

            annotationView = MKPinAnnotationView(annotation: annotation, reuseIdentifier: identifier)
            annotationView?.canShowCallout = true

              let label1 = UILabel(frame: CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 21))
            label1.text = "Some text1 some text2 some text2 some text2 some text2 some text2 some text2"
             label1.numberOfLines = 0
              annotationView!.detailCalloutAccessoryView = label1;

            let width = NSLayoutConstraint(item: label1, attribute: NSLayoutAttribute.Width, relatedBy: NSLayoutRelation.LessThanOrEqual, toItem: nil, attribute: NSLayoutAttribute.NotAnAttribute, multiplier: 1, constant: 200)
            label1.addConstraint(width)


            let height = NSLayoutConstraint(item: label1, attribute: NSLayoutAttribute.Height, relatedBy: NSLayoutRelation.Equal, toItem: nil, attribute: NSLayoutAttribute.NotAnAttribute, multiplier: 1, constant: 90)
            label1.addConstraint(height)



        } else {
            annotationView!.annotation = annotation
        }
        return annotationView
    }


}

here i use NSLayoutConstraint

i programatically create a label. add the constraint on it and then add the label in detailCalloutAccessoryView of MKAnnotationView.
