The first thing I tried to do was to subclass the UISwitch. But when one looks at the docs for the UISwitch there are no Properties or Instance Methods that one can override to change the "text" on the switch. And when one looks at the origins of the UISwitch, there is nothing to be overridden to change the text (or actually the images that contain text) either.
Inherits from
UIControl : UIView : UIResponder : NSObject
Conforms to
NSCoding
NSCoding (UIView)
NSObject (NSObject)
So when I hit The UISwitch class is not customizable. I threw in the towel.
