Question

I’ve noticed in some apps, like the Contacts app, there’s a button or buttons at the bottom of a Grouped Table View. I was wondering if those buttons are part of the UITableView, like the button is in a UITableViewCell, or if it’s a UIView that has a button in it that’s below the UITableView. I was also wondering if either method was better than the other. I want to add some buttons to my UITableView similar to the Contacts app and didn’t know what the better approach would be. Thanks!

UITableView has two relevant properties, tableHeaderView and tableFooterView. All you have to do to replicate what you’re seeing in Contacts is connect the property to a custom UIView that contains a UIButton as a subview.
