Control the duration and completion of UITableView row/section-updating methods.

CocoaPods

You can install UITableView-AnimationControl through CocoaPods adding the following to your Podfile:

pod 'UITableView-AnimationControl'

At a glance

This is how you should use it:

[self.tableViewDataArray addObject:object];

[self.tableView beginSmartUpdatesForDuration:0.25];
[self.tableView insertRowsAtIndexPaths:indexPaths withRowAnimation:rowAnimation completion:^{
    // Update animations ended. Do whatever you want!
}];
[self.tableView endSmartUpdates];

Notice it gets integrated perfectly with NSFetchedResultsController.

These are all methods available:

Inserting

• insertRowsAtIndexPaths:withRowAnimations:completion:
• insertSections:withRowAnimation:completion:

Deleting

• deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:withRowAnimations:completion:
• deleteSections:withRowAnimation:completion:

Reloading
