Answer 1

If you have a navigation bar you should add a UIBarButtonItem like this:

UIBarButtonItem *addButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]      
    initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemAdd
    target:self action:@selector(addButtonPressed:)];
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = addButton;

1. Go to the iPhone Interface Guidelines Page.

2. Under "Standard Buttons for Use in Table Rows and Other User Interface Elements" Copy the ContactAdd button(I save it as ContactAdd.png here). Add it to your project.

3. In the cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath method add:

   UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"ContactAdd.png"];
   
   
   
   UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
   //You can also Use:
   //UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeContactAdd];
   
   CGRect frame = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, image.size.width, image.size.height);
   
   //match the button's size with the image size
   button.frame = frame;
   
   [button setBackgroundImage:image forState:UIControlStateNormal];
   
   // set the button's target to this table view controller so you can open the next view
   [button addTarget:self action:@selector(yourFunctionToNextView:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
   
   button.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
   
   cell.accessoryView = button;

For Swift

let addButton = UIBarButtonItem.init(barButtonSystemItem: .Add,
                                     target: self,
                                     action: #selector(yourFunction))
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = addButton
