You indeed can do that, however your app will get rejected, as described in the Human Interface Guidelines by Apple. If you still want to do that then just [alertView addSubview:view]; will work.

I would suggest making your own UIAlertView, but with more unified design and better UX than how it would look in the UIAlertView.

Why go for adding and showing in custom alertview .You can show it in a subview and present it using the addSubview: method

Note the purpose of alertview is to present an alert and it alone is the sole purpose.The UIView is there for the purpose of presenting it

I know but if i add UIVIew on UIVIewController, i cannot disable interaction of UIVIewController when UIView appear – HTKT611 Jul 19 '13 at 09:27
Well in that case I will suggest the custom libraries like SVProgressHUD for the purpose – Lithu T.V Jul 19 '13 at 09:28

yes,you can add,need to set proper frames and all those things like button actions on the view.

 UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc]initWithTitle:@"test" message:@"\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n" delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:nil otherButtonTitles:nil, nil];
    UIView *view= [[UIView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 300, 300)];
    view.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
    [alert addSubview:view];
    [alert show];

Try this Code i am adding Label.

delegate.alert=[[UIAlertView alloc]initWithTitle:@"Password" message:@"\n\n\n\n\n" delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:nil otherButtonTitles:nil, nil];

    delegate.lbl=[[UILabel alloc]init];
    delegate.lbl.frame=CGRectMake(60, 42, 200, 18);

    delegate.lbl.backgroundColor=[UIColor clearColor];
    [delegate.alert addSubview:delegate.lbl];

Adding like this whatever your control but only setting Frames Properly... As per your Need..
