I am receiving a nsstring that is not properly encoded like "mystring%201, where must be "mystring 1". How could I replace all characters that could be interpreted as UTF8? I read a lot of posts but not a full solution. Please note that nsstring is already encoded wrong and I am not asking about how to encode char sequence. Thank you.

are you asking about URI encoding? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percent-encodingjcopenha– jcopenha2012-08-02 21:31:02 +00:00Commented Aug 2, 2012 at 21:31

- (NSString *)stringByReplacingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:(NSStringEncoding)encoding is what you want. basically use it like so:
newString = [myString stringByReplacingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];

[urlString stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]

Check the Strings and Non-ASCII Characters section of Formatting String Objects:
NSString *s = [NSString stringWithUTF8String:"Long \xe2\x80\x94 dash"];
Comments
lblDate.text=[NSString stringWithCString:[[arrTripDetail valueForKey:Param_vCurrencySymbol] UTF8String] encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
U can Convert & get Custom Emoji to string
eg :
input : \U20b9
Output: ₹

Please don't post identical answers to multiple questions. Post one good answer, then vote/flag to close the other questions as duplicates. If the question is not a duplicate, tailor your answers to the question.
Do you want just percent encoding/decoding or full URL encoding/decoding? -(NSString*)stringByReplacingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding: will work if it is just percent encoding, but if there is full URL encoding there (so, for example a space could be either %20 or +) then you'll need something like the url decoding in the three20 library (or search on there, there are lots of examples of how to do it such as URL decoding/encoding NSString).
