Return Value

A string to use as the title of the section footer. If you return nil , the section will have no title.

Discussion

The table view uses a fixed font style for section footer titles. If you want a different font style, return a custom view (for example, a UILabel object) in the delegate method tableView(_:viewForFooterInSection:) instead.

If you don’t implement this method or the tableView(_:viewForFooterInSection:) method, the table doesn’t display footers for sections. If you implement both methods, the tableView(_:viewForFooterInSection:) method takes priority.
