Answer 1

You can attach to the "UIControlEventValueChanged" slider event instead and use the following code in your event handler:

  [slider addTarget:self action:@selector(handleValueChanged:event:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventValueChanged];

- (void)handleValueChanged:(id)sender event:(id)event {
     UITouch *touchEvent = [[event allTouches] anyObject]; // there's only one touch
     if (touchEvent.phase == UITouchPhaseEnded) { /* place your code here */ }}

Answer 2

UISlider inherits from UIControl so you should be able to add and action on "UIControlEventTouchUpInside"

Try something like :

[slider addTarget:self action:@selector(sliderTouchUpInsideAction:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
