You can manually create a UITextRange with the methods provided by UITextInput:

UITextPosition *firstCharacterPosition = [textField beginningOfDocument];
UITextPosition *secondCharacterPosition = [textField positionFromPosition:firstCharacterPosition offset:1];
UITextRange *firstCharacterRange = [textField textRangeFromPosition:firstCharacterPosition toPosition:secondCharacterPosition];
NSString *firstCharacter = [textField textInRange:firstCharacterRange];
