For sending Typing State

NSXMLElement *message = [NSXMLElement elementWithName:@"message"];
[message addAttributeWithName:@"type" stringValue:@"chat"];
[message addAttributeWithName:@"to" stringValue: toID];

NSXMLElement *composing = [NSXMLElement elementWithName:@"composing"];
[composing addAttributeWithName:@"xmlns" stringValue:@"http://jabber.org/protocol/chatstates"];

[message addChild:composing];

[xmppStream sendElement:message];

At Receiving Side

if ([message hasComposingChatState] == YES)

Check this condition and use it proper with your typing indication.
