Renaming the "Delete" button in edit mode of tableviewcontroller

Question

Can we rename the "Delete" button when put a table view in edit mode to something else?

Answer 1

The UITableView delegate just has to implement:

- (NSString *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView titleForDeleteConfirmationButtonForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath

Answer 2

Implement

- (NSString *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView titleForDeleteConfirmationButtonForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath

And return your custom title for delete.

From UITableViewDelegate docs

Answer 3

In Swift:

override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, titleForDeleteConfirmationButtonForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> String? {
        return "Remove"
    }
