Reloading table view and swiping right to delete

I am reloading table view every 0.25 seconds as I have a timer app, but the delete button when I swipe from right to left won't stay there because I am reloading the table view.

How do I fix this?

There is no need to reload the tableView to update the visible cells. Instead, loop over the visible cells calling the update method on each one:

// Example custom cell class
class MyCustomCell: UITableViewCell {
    func updateTimeLabel() {
        // code to update time label
    }
}

In the timer method:

for case let cell as MyCustomCell in tableView.visibleCells {
    cell.updateTimeLabel()
}

Your updateTimeLabel method might need data such as the current Date or the new value for the time label, so pass it what it needs to update the label.

a start of solution could be to observe swipe events on tableview thanks to :

optional func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, willBeginEditingRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath)

in this func you stop the reload func

and in :

optional func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didEndEditingRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath)

you restart your reload func
