Add a footer to UITableView at the bottom

I am doing a slide menu using a UITableView and I have 2 options on the menu and I want to put a button at the bottom like in this image:

enter image description here

I try to do that add a tableFooterView like that.

UIView *footerView  = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 500, 320, 70)];
footerView.backgroundColor = [UIColor blackColor];
self.tableView.tableFooterView = footerView;

However, the view appears just after the second cell, but I want it at the bottom.

Thanks for help.

Add a Container View with View Controller from storyboard. You can use autoresizing to set the buttons on right place.

No you shouldn't add any empty cells, that's just hacky. If you really need the button to be at the bottom, you should use layoutSubviews to control the frame of the tableView and the footerView.

- (void)layoutSubviews
{
   [super layoutSubviews];
   self.tableView.frame = // top 80% of the screen
   self.footerView.frame = // bottom 20% of the screen
}

You should know that every UITableViewCell has its height and footer is part of a UITableView and will appear at the bottom of a UITableView. If you want to make your UITableView look like what that image shows, you should make sure that your cells are high enough to make sure that your UITableView are high enough so that footer will appear at the bottom of UITableView

My suggestion is to add extra "empty" cell(I mean a cell with no content but has a height).
