There are lot of app in the wild which used the blurring effect. Previously providing these effect was cumbersome. With UIVisualEffectView we can implement the same thing much more efficiently.

Create a Single View Application
Drag a image view on to the view and set the constraint by clicking on the pin icon and setting constraints on all side to 0
Drag the blur image view onto the image view and set the constraints by setting the bottom, left and right constraints to 0 and set the height to 200px
Drag a UIlabel and add constraints to set the align it in the horizontal and vertical center
You could change the blur type to look perfect for your app.
