UITextView starts at Bottom or Middle of the text

That did the trick for me!

Objective C:

[self.textView scrollRangeToVisible:NSMakeRange(0, 0)];

Swift:

self.textView.scrollRangeToVisible(NSMakeRange(0, 0))

Swift 2 (Alternate Solution)

Add this override method to your ViewController

override func viewDidLayoutSubviews() {
    super.viewDidLayoutSubviews()
    textView.setContentOffset(CGPointZero, animated: false)
}

Swift 3 & 4 (syntax edit)

override func viewDidLayoutSubviews() {
  super.viewDidLayoutSubviews()

  textView.contentOffset = .zero
}
