In iOS 7 my UIButton titles are animating in and out at the wrong time - late. This problem does not appear on iOS 6. I'm just using:

[self setTitle:text forState:UIControlStateNormal];

I would prefer this happens instantly and without a blank frame. This blink is especially distracting and draws attention away from other animations.

Use the performWithoutAnimation: method and then force layout to happen immediately instead of later on.

[UIView performWithoutAnimation:^{
  [self.myButton setTitle:text forState:UIControlStateNormal];
  [self.myButton layoutIfNeeded];
}];
