In xcode, I recently have a look at autoresizing in IB inspector. But I didn't get its actual use. How its different from adding constraints in autolayout?

AutoLayout (deals with external constraints.) vs Autoresizing (deals with internal content.)

In simple language Autoresizing is about that how the contents of a view will fit in the view. It means it depends on the content of the view.

where as AutoLayout is about how the external constraints for example position of the view , the size of view supported by other neighboring components.

AutoLayout actually triggers the AutoResizing Task and for autoresizing activity , auto-layout forcefully or normally change or break the default constraints of views which are related to the corresponding view if needed.
