The accepted answer doesn t work for UILocalNotification  For some reason        4 percent signs  or the unicode character   uFF05  only work for this    So to recap  when formatting your string you may use     However  if your string is part of a UILocalNotification  use      or  uFF05

The escape code for a percent sign is       so your code would look like this   NSString stringWithFormat    d     someDigit     Also  all the other format specifiers can be found at Conceptual Strings Articles

iOS 9 2 1  Xcode 7 2 1  ARC enabled  You can always append the     by itself without any other format specifiers in the string you are appending  like so     int test   10   NSString  stringTest    NSString stringWithFormat    d   test   stringTest    stringTest stringByAppendingString        NSLog        stringTest     For iOS7 0   To expand the answer to other characters that might cause you conflict you may choose to use   -  NSString   stringByAddingPercentEncodingWithAllowedCharacters  NSCharacterSet   allowedCharacters  Written out step by step it looks like this   int test   10   NSString  stringTest    NSString stringWithFormat    d   test   stringTest     stringTest stringByAppendingString                     stringByAddingPercentEncodingWithAllowedCharacters                NSCharacterSet alphanumericCharacterSet    stringTest    stringTest stringByRemovingPercentEncoding    NSLog   percent value of test       stringTest     Or short hand   NSLog   percent value of test           NSString stringWithFormat    d   test   stringByAppendingString       stringByAddingPercentEncodingWithAllowedCharacters   NSCharacterSet alphanumericCharacterSet   stringByRemovingPercentEncoding      Thanks to all the original contributors   Hope this helps   Cheers
