My app receives strings from a web service that look like

make the application slow as there are a lot of these strings.
Can I use regular expressions or certainly a better way? Any ideas?
NSString *result = [[originalString
stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"_" withString: @" "]
capitalizedString];
This is about the fastest straightforward means of doing what you
described, assuming that your strings are as simple as you describe in
all cases. There are faster ways, but they aren't nearly so simple.
Thinking something is going to be slow is very different from
something actually being slow enough to impact your application's
user's experience.
