You would typically use push notifications for this, but you could also use a websocket — Paulw11, Aug 03 '16 at 08:52

Go to this web site PubNub, download SDK's for both Server and Objective-C. PubNub is a common Stream Service with Subscribe/Publish services. After implementing SDK's, make your Client as Subscriber, and make your Server as Publisher. Simply; Subscribers are listening channels for data. When you have a new comment, Publish that comment from Server to channel which your client has already subscribed. Do not forget, free accounts are for demo purposes and have limitations.

@AbhishekMishra There are several. Pusheo, SocketRocket etc. I'm using PubNub. That's why I've suggested. – Serkan Hekimoglu Aug 03 '16 at 10:34
