If I create a UITableViewController, for example via File → New Project... → iOS → Master-Detail Application in Xcode, a UITableView is created with a prototype cell.
The generated view hierarchy is:
A left "margin" is automagically created between the Cell's Content UIView left edge and the "Title" text's UILabel element as shown below in orange.
This results in a corresponding margin between the device's screen edge and the UILabel text at runtime:
So, where is the width of this gap set, and how can it be adjusted?
The controls in the Size Inspector for the UILabel are greyed out:
My preferred option would to be able to set the width of this gap from within Interface Builder, but I would also like to understand where this gap is being set, and how to alter it programmatically.

Choose iOS -> Source -> Cocoa Touch Class. Name the class TableCiewController and make it a subclass of UITableViewController. Go to the TableViewController. swift file and declare the following array.
The way I achieve adding spacing between cells is to make numberOfSections = "Your array count" and make each section contains only one row. And then define headerView and its height. This works great.
For performance reasons, a table view's data source should generally reuse UITableViewCell objects when it assigns cells to rows in its tableView(_:cellForRowAt:) method. A table view maintains a queue or list of UITableViewCell objects that the data source has marked for reuse.
You just need to set contentInset property of the table view. You can set value according to your need.
self.tableView.contentInset = UIEdgeInsetsMake(0, -15, 0, 0);
