在swift 5中，

let font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 16)
UISegmentedControl.appearance().setTitleTextAttributes([NSAttributedString.Key.font: font], for: .normal)

以下是Swift版本的公认答案:

斯威夫特3:

let font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 16)
segmentedControl.setTitleTextAttributes([NSFontAttributeName: font],
                                        for: .normal)

斯威夫特2.2:

let font = UIFont.systemFontOfSize(16)
segmentedControl.setTitleTextAttributes([NSFontAttributeName: font], 
    forState: UIControlState.Normal)

在swift 5中，

let font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 16)
UISegmentedControl.appearance().setTitleTextAttributes([NSAttributedString.Key.font: font], for: .normal)

在iOS 5.0+中使用Appearance API:

[[UISegmentedControl appearance] setTitleTextAttributes:[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:[UIFont fontWithName:@"STHeitiSC-Medium" size:13.0], UITextAttributeFont, nil] forState:UIControlStateNormal];

另一种选择是对控件应用转换。然而，它将缩小一切，包括控制边界。

segmentedControl.transform = CGAffineTransformMakeScale(.6f, .6f);

你可以通过递归检查从UISegmentedControl开始的每个视图来获得UILabel的实际字体。我不知道这是不是最好的方法，但它确实有效。

@interface tmpSegmentedControlTextViewController : UIViewController {
}

@property (nonatomic, assign) IBOutlet UISegmentedControl * theControl;

@end

@implementation tmpSegmentedControlTextViewController

@synthesize theControl; // UISegmentedControl

- (void)viewDidLoad {
  [self printControl:[self theControl]];
  [super viewDidLoad];
}

- (void) printControl:(UIView *) view {
  NSArray * views = [view subviews];
  NSInteger idx,idxMax;
  for (idx = 0, idxMax = views.count; idx < idxMax; idx++) {
    UIView * thisView = [views objectAtIndex:idx];
    UILabel * tmpLabel = (UILabel *) thisView;
    if ([tmpLabel respondsToSelector:@selector(text)]) {
      NSLog(@"TEXT for view %d: %@",idx,tmpLabel.text);
      [tmpLabel setTextColor:[UIColor blackColor]];
    }

    if (thisView.subviews.count) {
      NSLog(@"View has subviews");
      [self printControl:thisView];
    }
  }
}

@end

在上面的代码中，我只是设置了UILabel的文本颜色，但你也可以获取或设置字体属性。
