Can i set image to corresponding substring using NSAttributedString.If yes,how?
No. The NSAttributedString used by the Core Text engine only supports formatting text. You need to use 3rd-party rendering code if you need to embed an image, e.g. TTStyledTextLabel.

of programmatically loaded text
like this, using
differing styles in a Swift app,
preferably within a single string?
Take a look over NSAttributedString and it's mutable version NSMutableAttributedString class.

I have an app that retrieves a user's stream and puts it into a UITableView. However, some include emojis (those little smile faces in iOS), and they just return as boxes in my UILabel.
I've done some research, and I still can't figure it out. Does the text type need to be changed?
Thanks!
Please explain your problem better,from the piece that i understood,notice that emojis have native support in iPhone,so any app can display an emoji in a text box,i recommend you to check the methods you're using to add text to the uitableview and the text encoding from the string which is being displayed,also you could check this link
use NSString drawinrect to display emoji instead of drawGlyphsForGlyphRange.
Is there a way to directly use HTML tags in iPhone SDK? I was wondering how could I display the following text using HTML in a UILabel :
My name is Nitish and I am 24 years old.
It does not seem to be allowed. Look at following post as well:
iPhone - UILabel containing text with multiple fonts at the same time
Look at this alternative as well:
iPhone - UILabel containing text with multiple fonts at the same time (another asnwer)
You can't use UILabel to display richtext, you will have to move to CoreText.
https://github.com/Cocoanetics/NSAttributedString-Additions-for-HTML will allow you to create NASttributeString from HTML source.
This library might help.

May I point you to the CoreText Framework and Befriending Core Text on cocoanetics.com. This will show you how to format text.
I have a text which looks like the following,
the url of the page is http://www.myurl.com, and the phone # is (999)999-9999, blah blah blah...
And I want to show it in a way such that the URL and the phone # are both in different color and bolded. Can I do it using just one UILabel control, or I need to parse them out and put them onto separate UILabel controls. (Note that the text itself could span multiple lines.) How can I do it?
Sorry I forgot to mention that this is for iPhone (CoCoa Touch), where the NSAttributedString is not available.
You might want to check out TTTAttributedLabel. It supports automatic data detection for things like Phone Numbers and URLs, as well as mixed styles with NSAttributedStrings.
You could use an NSAttributeString to decorate your string. There is a good explanation of how to use them here Change the background color of a substring of a drawn NSString?
You could try using a UIWebView, which detects both URLs and phone numbers.
