In objective-c doesn't exists a standard way to comment your code. I can suggest you to use doxygen, doxygen use a syntax similar to JavaDoc and can generate Docset that xcode can load and use for suggestion. I understand that this isn't trivial like in C# but for a brief introdution about Doxygen syntax, Usefull script and how to generate Xcode docset take a look at:
