Fade In Fade Out Animation

Question

Here is some code I struggle with for a while.

If you start the fade in animation, the label text fades in. If I start the fade out animation the the label text fades ou

Answer 1

labelAnimate = (UILabel*) [self.view viewWithTag:101];
btnTapMe = (UIButton*) [self.view viewWithTag:100];
[btnTapMe addTarget:self action:@selector(startAnimating:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];

//////////////

-(void) startAnimating:(UIButton*)button {
    [labelAnimate setAlpha:0.0];
    [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:1.8 target:self selector:@selector(continuousEaseInOut) userInfo:button repeats:YES];
}

-(void) continuousFadeInOut {
    [UIView animateWithDuration:2.0 delay:0.0 options:UIViewAnimationOptionCurveEaseIn animations:^{
        [labelAnimate setAlpha:1.0];
    } completion:^(BOOL finished) {
        [UIView animateWithDuration:2.0 delay:0.0 options:UIViewAnimationOptionCurveEaseInOut animations:^{
            [labelAnimate setAlpha:0.0];
        } completion:nil];
    }];
}
