This is official answer to find index of specific object, then you can easily remove any object using that index :

var students = ["Ben", "Ivy", "Jordell", "Maxime"]
if let i = students.firstIndex(of: "Maxime") {
     // students[i] = "Max"
     students.remove(at: i)
}
print(students)
// Prints ["Ben", "Ivy", "Jordell"]

Try this in Swift 3  array remove at  Index    Instead of  array removeAtIndex index    Update   Declaration is only valid at file scope     Make sure the object is in scope  You can give scope  internal   which is default   index of  lt Object gt   to work  class should conform to Equatable

The Swift equivalent to NSMutableArray s removeObject is   var array     alpha    beta    gamma    if let index   array firstIndex of   beta         array remove at  index      if the objects are unique  There is no need at all to cast to NSArray and use indexOfObject   The API index of  also works but this causes an unnecessary implicit bridge cast to NSArray   If there are multiple occurrences of the same object use filter  However in cases like data source arrays where an index is associated with a particular object firstIndex of is preferable because it s faster than filter   Update   In Swift 4 2  you can remove one or multiple occurrences of beta with removeAll where     array removeAll  0     beta

Extension for array to do it easily and allow chaining for Swift 4 2 and up   public extension Array where Element  Equatable        discardableResult     public mutating func remove   item  Element  - gt  Array           if let index   firstIndex where    item     0                  remove at  index                    return self             discardableResult     public mutating func removeAll   item  Element  - gt  Array           removeAll where    item     0            return self

Another nice and useful solution is to create this kind of extension   extension Array where Element  Equatable         discardableResult mutating func remove object  Element  - gt  Bool           if let index   index of  object                self remove at  index              return true                   return false             discardableResult mutating func remove where predicate   Array Iterator Element  - gt  Bool  - gt  Bool           if let index   self index where     element  - gt  Bool in             return predicate element                           self remove at  index              return true                   return false            In this way  if you have your array with custom objects   let obj1   MyObject id  1  let obj2   MyObject id  2  var array   MyObject     obj1  obj2   array remove where     obj  - gt  Bool in     return obj id    1       OR array remove object  obj2

for var index   self indexOfObject object   index    NSNotFound  index   self indexOfObject object  is for loop in C-style and has been removed Change your code to something like this to remove all similar object if it have looped   let indexes   arrContacts enumerated   filter    0 element    contacts indexPath row    map   0 offset   for index in indexes reversed        arrContacts remove at  index
