Calendar has a built in function which allows us to avoid using DateComponent directly:

let nextDay: Date = Calendar.current.date(byAdding: .day, value: 1, to: date)

as commentator https://stackoverflow.com/users/3165426/develobär points out, you must use Calendar and not assume the length of any particular day, as not all days are the same length (Daylight savings time transitions, leap seconds, etc.)

Swift code without using NSCalendar:

var today = NSDate()
var res = today.dateByAddingTimeInterval(24*60*60)
println("\(today), \(res)") // 2014-09-15 10:31:28 +0000, 2014-09-16 10:31:28 +0000

Use NSDateComponents:

var calendar:NSCalendar = NSCalendar.currentCalendar()      
var dayFutureComponents:NSDateComponents = NSDateComponents()

 dayFutureComponents.day = 1 // aka 1 day

 let today = NSDate.date()  // Sep 15, 2014, 1:10 PM
 var oneDay:NSDate = calendar.dateByAddingComponents(
         dayFutureComponents, toDate: today!, options: nil)!

Output:

"Sep 16, 2014, 1:10 PM"
