How to scale UIImageView properly with UIView animateWithDuration?

Question

I'm scaling UIImageView and then reverting it using UIView animateWithDuration with UIViewAnimationOptionAutoreverse option. The problem is the image animation is a little bit jaggy (twitching) at the end of the animation. Here's my code:

[UIView animateWithDuration:0.25 delay:0 options:UIViewAnimationOptionAutoreverse 
  animations:^{

    myImage.transform = CGAffineTransformScale(CGAffineTransformIdentity, 0.9, 0.9);}  

  completion:^(BOOL finished){if (finished){

    myImage.transform = CGAffineTransformScale(CGAffineTransformIdentity, 1.0, 1.0);}}];

I know that I'm missing something but don't know where to start :(

UPDATE1: I'm performing nested 6 animations where each next animation performs after previous one. For that I'm using block animations and performing each next animation in complete block.

UPDATE2: I have tried with UIViewAnimationOptionRepeat option but there's still some flash effect after each scale animation.

UIViewAnimationOptionAutoreverse does nothing without also using the UIViewAnimationOptionRepeat option. Your animation as written will shrink the image to 90%, then snap back to 100% in the completion block. Maybe you can follow this animation with another that scales back to 100% over a quarter second. Something like this:

    [UIView animateWithDuration:0.25 delay:0 options:UIViewAnimationOptionCurveEaseInOut 
                 animations:^{
                     myImage.transform = CGAffineTransformScale(CGAffineTransformIdentity, 0.9, 0.9);}  
                 completion:^(BOOL finished){if (finished){

    [UIView animateWithDuration:0.25 delay:0 options:UIViewAnimationOptionCurveEaseInOut 
                     animations:^{
                         myImage.transform = CGAffineTransformScale(CGAffineTransformIdentity, 1.0, 1.0);}  
                     completion:NULL];}}];

.h file declerd.

NSInteger imgint;

.m file in code and try.

-(void) 
{
    [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:(0.85f)target:self selector:@selector(play_btn_animation) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];   
}

-(void)play_btn_animation
{
    if(imgint == 0)
    {
        [UIView animateWithDuration:0.8
                              delay:0.0
                            options: UIViewAnimationOptionCurveEaseIn
                         animations:^{
                             img.transform = CGAffineTransformScale(CGAffineTransformIdentity, 0.8, 0.8);
                         }
                         completion:^(BOOL finished) {
                             img = 1;
                         }];

    }
    else
    {
        [UIView animateWithDuration:0.8
                              delay:0.0
                            options: UIViewAnimationOptionCurveEaseOut
                         animations:^{
                             img.transform = CGAffineTransformScale(CGAffineTransformIdentity, 1, 1);
                         }
                         completion:^(BOOL finished) {
                             imgint = 0;
                         }];
    }
}
