How to insert new cell into UITableView in Swift

Use beginUpdates and endUpdates to insert a new cell when the button clicked.

As @vadian said in comment, begin/endUpdates has no effect for a single insert/delete/move operation

First of all, append data in your tableview array

Yourarray.append([labeltext])  

Then update your table and insert a new row

// Update Table Data
tblname.beginUpdates()
tblname.insertRowsAtIndexPaths([
NSIndexPath(forRow: Yourarray.count-1, inSection: 0)], withRowAnimation: .Automatic)
tblname.endUpdates()

This inserts cell and doesn't need to reload the whole table but if you get any problem with this, you can also use tableview.reloadData()


Swift 3.0

tableView.beginUpdates()
tableView.insertRows(at: [IndexPath(row: yourArray.count-1, section: 0)], with: .automatic)
tableView.endUpdates()

Objective-C

[self.tblname beginUpdates];
NSArray *arr = [NSArray arrayWithObject:[NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:Yourarray.count-1 inSection:0]];
[self.tblname insertRowsAtIndexPaths:arr withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationAutomatic];
[self.tblname endUpdates];

Swift 5.0, 4.0, 3.0 Updated Solution

Insert at Bottom

self.yourArray.append(msg)

self.tblView.beginUpdates()
self.tblView.insertRows(at: [IndexPath.init(row: self.yourArray.count-1, section: 0)], with: .automatic)
self.tblView.endUpdates()

Insert at Top of TableView

self.yourArray.insert(msg, at: 0)
self.tblView.beginUpdates()
self.tblView.insertRows(at: [IndexPath.init(row: 0, section: 0)], with: .automatic)
self.tblView.endUpdates()

Here is your code for add data into both tableView:

import UIKit

class ViewController: UIViewController, UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource {

    @IBOutlet weak var table1Text: UITextField!
    @IBOutlet weak var table2Text: UITextField!
    @IBOutlet weak var table1: UITableView!
    @IBOutlet weak var table2: UITableView!

    var table1Data = ["a"]
    var table2Data = ["1"]

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

    }

    @IBAction func addData(sender: AnyObject) {

        //add your data into tables array from textField
        table1Data.append(table1Text.text)
        table2Data.append(table2Text.text)

        dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), { () -> Void in
            //reload your tableView
            self.table1.reloadData()
            self.table2.reloadData()
        })


        table1Text.resignFirstResponder()
        table2Text.resignFirstResponder()
    }

    //delegate methods
    func numberOfSectionsInTableView(tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
        return 1
    }
    func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
        if tableView == table1 {
            return table1Data.count
        }else if tableView == table2 {
            return table2Data.count
        }
        return Int()
    }

    func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {

        if tableView == table1 {
            let cell = table1.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("Cell", forIndexPath: indexPath) as! UITableViewCell

            let row = indexPath.row
            cell.textLabel?.text = table1Data[row]

            return cell
        }else if tableView == table2 {

            let cell = table2.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("Cell1", forIndexPath: indexPath) as! UITableViewCell

            let row = indexPath.row
            cell.textLabel?.text = table2Data[row]

            return cell
        }

        return UITableViewCell()
    }
}

And your result will be:
